Variohm EuroSensor has expanded its range of pressure sensors with the new low-cost EPT2105 series for a 0.5-4.5 V ratiometric output in two measurement range options of 10 and 12 bar. With its silicon pressure cell design based on Variohm’s EPT2100 series, the new sensor replaces the 2100’s stainless steel casing with a moulded glass fibre reinforced Polyamide housing. With IP66 sealing, this sensor integrates an M18 x 1.5 pressure port and a Packard connector for installation convenience. Life expectancy is more than 10 million operations.
