The IFM PT5460 is a high-pressure industrial transmitter designed for measuring system pressures up to 600 bar. It provides a 4 to 20 mA analogue output for integration with industrial controllers, PLCs and monitoring systems. The transmitter is designed for liquids and gases and can operate with medium temperatures from -40 to 90 °C. Its robust stainless-steel construction provides high mechanical strength for demanding pressure applications. With a 1500 bar pressure rating and 2500 bar minimum burst pressure, the PT5460 is suitable for high-pressure industrial systems.
Explore performance details, construction highlights, applications, and technical information in one clear overview.
The PT5460 provides a 0 to 600 bar measuring range for applications requiring high-pressure measurement capability. Its 4 to 20 mA output provides a standardized signal for industrial automation and process control systems. The transmitter maintains a characteristic deviation below ±0.5% of span across its specified measurement conditions. Repeatability is below ±0.05% of span, while linearity deviation is below ±0.1% BFSL. A 1 ms analogue step response provides fast pressure signal transmission for dynamic high-pressure systems.
The PT5460 uses a compact cylindrical housing measuring approximately 19 mm in diameter and 66 mm in length. Stainless steel 17-4 PH / 630 is used for the wetted parts, providing high mechanical strength under demanding pressure conditions. The transmitter is protected to IP67 and IP69K standards for reliable operation in harsh industrial environments. It can withstand 50 g shock and vibration loads of 20 g across 10 to 2000 Hz. The device is rated for a minimum of 60 million pressure cycles at 1.2 times nominal pressure.
The PT5460 operates from an 8.5 to 36 V DC supply and provides one 4 to 20 mA analogue output. Its standardized current output makes it suitable for PLC analogue input modules and industrial process controllers. The maximum output load depends on supply voltage and can reach 720 Ω at 24 V DC. Reverse-polarity, overload and short-circuit protection support reliable electrical operation. The M12 A-coded connector provides a secure and compact interface for industrial installation.
