Next-generation electronic manometer with LED visualisation

(See ifm at FoodManufacturing.Live, 15 October 2025, on stand 10)

The PG17xx features a multicolour LED display, delivering clear and precise visualisation of pressure ranges, switching points, minimum/maximum values and trend curves. By replacing traditional mechanical pointers with robust LED indicators, it eliminates inaccuracies and provides real-time, unambiguous feedback. Whether tracking pressure fluctuations or maintaining consistent parameters, the display ensures operational clarity and can be easily adjusted via IO-Link for application-specific needs.

At the heart of the device is a durable, overload-resistant ceramic measuring cell. Unlike conventional designs that use oil-based transfer media, this ceramic cell eliminates the risk of contamination, making it ideal for hygienic applications in industries like food and beverage. Integrated diagnostics continuously monitor the measuring cell's status, providing unmatched reliability in critical operations.

The PG17xx is available in both hygienic and industrial configurations to suit diverse operational requirements. The hygienic version is designed to withstand temperatures of up to 150degC, making it perfect for cleaning and sterilisation processes. Meanwhile, the industrial version supports a broader range of pressure levels, ideal for high-pressure applications. Both models are constructed with durable stainless-steel housing, offering excellent resistance to shock and vibration.

Advanced IO-Link functionality further enhances the PG17xx, enabling precise data transmission, remote configuration, and seamless digital integration. Users can customise the display, monitor real-time diagnostics, and track temperature data, boosting efficiency and streamlining system connectivity.
