Norstat now offers the FEMTO. A Pressure and Vacuum Sensor designed with a transistor switching output plus an additional analog output.

The FEMTO is truly a multi-functional sensor as it has both an adjustable transistor switching output as well as an additional analog output. With its compact yet rugged design and ability to be programmable via a keyboard this sensor can accurately control actuators directly or indirectly and at the same time and give out an analog measured value proportional to the applied pressure or vacuum. These properties, along with its ability to operate using filtered, dry or oiled air and non-corrosive gasses, make the FEMTO ideally suited for applications in the pneumatic field.

The FEMTO has a plastic PC housing with brass nickel-plated process connections and utilizes a M8, 4 pole electrical connection. Output is 1x switching signal ( PNP ), Analog output 1-5V with NO/NC  output function ( Programmable ). The sensors also have short circuit and reverse polarity protection with multiple measuring ranges of and use LED’s for operational status and switching indicators. Protection rating is IP 65 and the FEMTO can operate in temperature ranges of -20°C to +85°C.
