Product Overview

The ifm PT5404 is a compact electronic pressure transmitter designed for reliable measurement of relative pressure in liquids or gases. It converts system pressure into a standard 4–20 mA analogue signal, making it ideal for process control, monitoring, and automation systems in industrial or fluid-handling applications. Its robust stainless-steel housing, wide operating range, and simple M12 connector make it a versatile choice for hydraulic, pneumatic, or general industrial use.

Key Features

• Measures relative pressure for liquids and gases with a measuring range of 0 … 10 bar.

• Provides analogue 4–20 mA output, compatible with PLCs, controllers, and data-logging systems.

• Compact stainless-steel housing with G¼ external thread — suitable for standard industrial pressure ports.

• Wide operating voltage range: 8.5 … 36 V DC — flexible for various power supply setups.

• High durability and robustness — suitable for harsh industrial environments, with vibration and shock resistance.

• Wide temperature range for medium and ambient temperatures (e.g. –40 °C to +90 °C) — usable in diverse conditions.

• Vacuum resistance down to –1 bar (i.e. absolute vacuum resistance) — allows measurement in suction or negative-pressure systems.

• Compact size and M12 connector for easy wiring and quick installation.
