Air receiver and compressor tank pressure — monitored without a cable run
A receiver tank is usually in a corner of the plant, and the gauge is read when somebody walks past it. A battery sensor with a phone reader means the pressure can be checked without a cable, and a fall overnight is visible in the morning.
Read this before assuming the range fits
Our standard sensor range is 0–500 kPa gauge, about 5 bar. Compressor receivers commonly sit at 8–10 bar, which is above that range. This is a case where the honest answer is: the standard part will not do it, and a higher-pressure variant has to be specified.
We would rather say that in the first reply than ship a sensor that reads saturated at the top of its range. Tell us the working pressure and the medium (air, or something else) and we will confirm what is available.
Where it does fit
- Low-pressure air circuits and pneumatic tool lines inside the standard range.
- Air suspension bellows at 5-10 bar — again, at the top of the standard range, so this has to be confirmed per application rather than assumed.
- Test benches where a temporary, cable-free reading is what is wanted.
No continuous alarm with the phone-only configuration. If the tank must alarm in a control room, that is a receiver and a controller integration, not this configuration.
