MONNIT Industrial Wireless Differential Air Pressure Sensor
MONNIT Industrial Wireless Differential Air Pressure Sensor is an industrial wireless differential air pressure sensor designed to monitor the pressure difference between two points. It has a -500 Pa to +500 Pa measurement range and uses 433 MHz wireless communication. The sensor is suited to applications where differential air pressure needs to be monitored remotely, including HVAC, filtration and controlled environments. The supplied unit includes mounting hardware, a pre-installed 3 V industrial battery and a standard dipole SMA antenna.
The MONNIT Industrial Wireless Differential Air Pressure Sensor is an industrial wireless differential air pressure sensor for monitoring pressure differences between two points. Unlike a conventional gauge pressure sensor that measures pressure against a reference, a differential pressure sensor compares the pressure at two separate inputs.
The sensor has a measurement range of -500 Pa to +500 Pa. The positive or negative reading indicates the direction of the pressure difference between the two input ports. This makes it useful for applications where changes in pressure across a system are important to monitor.
The model operates on the Monnit ALTA 433 MHz wireless platform. The manufacturer's page identifies the MNS2-4-IN-PS-DP as a 433 MHz model and lists Australia among the regions using the 433 MHz version.
How it works
- The sensor measures the difference in air pressure between its two input ports.
- Pressure changes are converted into a differential pressure reading.
- The reading is transmitted wirelessly using the ALTA 433 MHz connection.
- The sensor can be used as part of a Monnit wireless monitoring system for remote pressure monitoring.
Why choose this product
- Wireless monitoring - avoids the need for a dedicated wired signal connection from the sensor location.
- Differential measurement - designed specifically for comparing air pressure at two points.
- Suitable measurement range - the -500 Pa to +500 Pa range is suited to low differential air-pressure applications.
- Industrial configuration - supplied with mounting hardware and a pre-installed 3 V industrial battery.
- 433 MHz version - the specified frequency is suitable for the Australian ALTA 433 MHz regional configuration.
Benefits
The wireless design can simplify installation where cabling between the pressure measurement point and monitoring equipment would be inconvenient. Differential measurement also allows users to identify changes between two areas or across equipment rather than simply monitoring absolute pressure.
For suitable installations, this can be useful for observing airflow-related pressure changes and identifying conditions that may require attention.
