Heavy Duty Hydraulic Transmitters

Manufacturers of loaders, excavators, telescopic handlers, rough terrain forklifts and high speed tractors are faced with ever increasing challenges such as:
• High pressure peaks
• Liquid hammer
• Cavitations
• High oil temperatures
• Heavily fluctuating temperatures
• Strict EMC high requirements
• High vibration and mechanical impact

Consequently Danfoss design their pressure sensors to meet the most stringent requirements. Their pressure sensor program enables you to specify:
• Type of electrical connections
• Level of accuracy
• Output signals
• Pressure connections

The piezo-resistive silicon sensor, available on most of our pressure sensors, is the most suitable in applications with pressure peaks. The pressure overload is typically six times (max. 1500 bar) the measuring range and performs millions of cycles. Our range of thin-film pressure sensors, types MBS 1200 and MBS 1250 allows fast response time and have a dual output.
All Danfoss heavy-duty versions are equipped with an integrated pulse-snubber which offers a high degree of protection against cavitations and liquid hammer, and the well thought out design results in excellent vibrations stability and an exceptional robustness. The high degree of EMI protection equips the pressure sensor to meet the stringent requirements within hydraulic applications. The sensors are designed for long-term stability at temperatures of 125 C. Moreover, the tight enclosure design ensures that the pressure sensor is protected against moisture caused by fluctuating temperature. The Danfoss range of pressure sensors also includes versions with Can-Bus communication system and versions for high pressure operation, up to 3000 bar
