The IFM PT5423 is a compact pressure transmitter designed for reliable system pressure measurement in industrial applications. It provides a 0 to 60 bar measuring range and converts pressure into a precise 4 to 20 mA analogue signal. The transmitter is suitable for measuring pressure in liquids and gases across demanding operating conditions. Its stainless-steel construction provides excellent resistance to shock, vibration and industrial environments. With IP67 and IP69K protection, the PT5423 is suitable for robust machine and process automation installations.
Explore performance details, construction highlights, applications, and technical information in one clear overview.
The PT5423 provides reliable pressure measurement over a range of 0 to 60 bar, supporting applications where stable pressure monitoring is required. Its analogue 4 to 20 mA output allows direct integration with PLCs, controllers and industrial monitoring systems. The transmitter offers a characteristic deviation of less than ±0.5% of span, including relevant error components. Repeatability is specified at less than ±0.05% of span under temperature fluctuations below 10 K. A fast analogue step response of approximately 1 ms enables the transmitter to respond quickly to pressure changes.
The PT5423 uses a compact cylindrical housing with stainless-steel materials selected for demanding industrial environments. Its wetted parts are manufactured from stainless steel 1.4542 / 17-4 PH / 630 to provide mechanical strength and media resistance. The transmitter has a diameter of approximately 19 mm and a length of 66 mm, making it suitable for installations with limited space. IP67 and IP69K protection help protect the sensor against dust, water and high-pressure cleaning conditions. The design is also tested for high shock and vibration loads, supporting reliable operation on industrial machinery.
The PT5423 operates from an 8.5 to 36 V DC supply and provides one analogue current output. Its 4 to 20 mA signal is widely compatible with industrial PLCs, controllers, data acquisition systems and automation equipment. The transmitter includes reverse-polarity protection, overload protection and short-circuit protection for dependable electrical operation. An M12 connector with A coding provides a compact and reliable electrical connection. The maximum permissible load depends on the supply voltage and can reach 720 Ω at 24 V DC.
