FA 500 - Dew point sensor with integrated display and alarm relay
Dew point sensor FA 500 for residual moisture measurement in compressed air systems with integrated display.
With the FA 500 you make the right choice for highest precision in dew point measurements. Our sensor offers a wide span of measuring ranges perfectly matched to the needs of different compressed air dryers. Rely on us for accurate results in any situation.
Monitoring a compressed air dryer is critical to increase energy efficiency, ensure product quality, prevent machine damage, identify maintenance needs and achieve cost savings. This contributes to the smooth operation of compressed air systems in various industrial applications.
Integrated display with buttons for easy operation
- Multiple display pages to show dew point and other measured values such as relative humidity and temperature
- Definition of threshold values for the alarm relay, definition of hysteresis
- Scaling of the analog output 04...20 mA and switching to other measured variables
- Input of system pressure as well as reference pressure for calculation of reference dew points, e.g., atmospheric dew point
Special advantages of the FA 500 dew point sensors:
- Ideal for all types of compressed air dryers with different measuring ranges such as -80...+20°Ctd; -60...+30°Ctd; -20...+50°Ctd
- Sensor element insensitive against condensation and water
- Maximum pressure 500 bar (special version)
- Long-term stable and drift-proof, thus optimized calibration intervals
- Gas-independent measurement, also suitable for other non-corrosive gases
- Fast response time, especially in case of moisture ingress
- BSP- or NPT-Threads
- Protection class IP 65
- Analog output 4...20 mA and Modbus RTU (RS 485) interface, contact relay with limit value adjustable via keys (max. 60 VDC, 0.5A)
