Measuring process pressure on scissor lifts
PS+ sensors reliably control the pressure of hydraulic cylinders
Hydraulic scissor lifts for lifting and positioning heavy workpieces place demanding requirements on the pressure sensors of the hydraulic cylinders: Pressures of up to 400 bar can occur at the beginning of the lift. Turck's robust pressure sensors of the PS+ series therefore also come with a metal measuring cell (PS510), offering an overpressure resistance of up to seven times the nominal pressure and ensures hermetic tightness even in the event of overload.
Your Benefits
- The sensors are highly resistant thanks to the laser-welded stainless steel housing and a fully-sealed cover, increasing system availability
- Teach locking mechanism prevents any unauthorized access to parameters
- Intuitive operation via capacitive touchpads that feel like a smartphone
Locking mechanism for extra safety
The practical challenges involved with using a scissor lift were also considered when designing the user interface for the PS+ sensors. This includes that the pressure sensor menu offers protection against operating errors. The device is unlocked using a swipe motion; a password can be set if necessary. Users can select the preset Turck standard menu guidance or switch to the VDMA standard.
