A pressure sensor measures the pressure, typically of fluids, at a point in a fluid network. All sensors, transducers and elements that generate an electrical signal comparative to pressure changes are considered pressure sensors. Pressure sensors are often used in safety instruments, including safety edges, mats, and bumpers, in order to pass on any changes in pressure to recorders or switches.
Absolute, vacuum, gauge, differential and sealed pressure sensors are the five main types of pressure sensors. Each one measures a different variable of pressure. Absolute sensors, for example, test for absolute pressure, or the amount of pressure comparative to a perfect vacuum. Vacuum sensors tests pressure levels that are lower than the atmospheric pressure. The most common type of pressure sensor is gauge sensors, which when adjusted can measure pressure in relation to atmospheric pressure. By finding the difference between the inputs of multiple pressure levels, differential sensors obtain pressure measurements. Sealed sensors, on the other hand, only measure pressure in relation to a single atmosphere at sea level.
The way that information is received and presented varies among pressure sensors. Variations include current, voltage or AM/FM signals, analog forms, switch/alarm outputs, parallel or serial output, or digital or video presentations. Compared with flow sensors, pressure sensors often have less cost to achieve a similar result.
