The IFM PI1705 is a flush pressure sensor with display designed for hygienic pressure monitoring in food and beverage processing. It measures -1…4 bar and supports both relative pressure and vacuum measurement. Two digital outputs, one scalable 4…20 mA output, and IO-Link provide flexible integration into automation systems. Its G1 Aseptoflex Vario connection, 316L stainless-steel construction, and flush no-dead-space design support hygienic installation. The sensor also provides integrated temperature monitoring from -25…150 °C.
Explore performance details, construction highlights, applications, and technical information in one clear overview.
The PI1705 is designed for low-pressure applications with a measuring range of -1…4 bar. It can monitor both vacuum and positive pressure. The minimum difference between the switching point and reset point is 0.006 bar. Pressure values can be configured in 0.001 bar increments. This provides fine adjustment for sensitive process-control applications.
The PI1705 combines pressure measurement with integrated temperature monitoring. Its temperature measuring range is -25…150 °C with a resolution of 0.2 K. Temperature data can be transmitted digitally through IO-Link. The sensor also provides internal temperature and pressure-peak information through IO-Link. This allows multiple process parameters to be monitored from one device.
The PI1705 uses a G1 Aseptoflex Vario process connection with a flush sealing contour. Wetted materials include 99.9% Al₂O₃ ceramic, stainless steel 316L/1.4435, and PTFE. The wetted surface has a specified Ra <0.4 µm / Rz 4 µm finish. The sensor supports medium temperatures up to 150 °C and a pressure rating of 30 bar. IP67/IP68/IP69K protection supports demanding hygienic environments.

The PI1705 provides pressure and temperature data through its IO-Link interface. The pressure resolution through IO-Link is 0.0002 bar. Temperature resolution is 0.2 K. Diagnostic functions include operating hours, switching cycles, pressure peaks, and measuring-cell diagnosis. The sensor supports a minimum IO-Link process cycle time of 5.6 ms. This makes it suitable for detailed digital process monitoring.
Install the PI1705 using the specified G1 Aseptoflex Vario connection. Ensure the flush sealing surface is clean and correctly seated during installation. The recommended tightening torque is 35 Nm. Observe the pressure and temperature limits of the process. Regularly inspect the sensing surface, process seal, and M12 connector.
