VSP pressure sensor

For industry applications and HVCAR

The VSP pressure sensor is available in a full stainless- steel design for universal use in general industrial applications. Its robust, all-welded stainless-steel construction makes it a reliable solution wherever broad media compatibility and resistance to harsh operating conditions are required.

Measurements of relative pressure up to 200 bar are possible with the VSP. Its specially developed evaluation electronics permit accurate and stable measurements across an industrial operating temperature range of −40 °C to 125 °C. The sensor is available with an analog voltage output or a 4–20 mA current-loop output, enabling straightforward integration into standard industrial control and monitoring systems – from PLC-based automation to the monitoring infrastructure of data center cooling circuits.
