ifm electronic Pressure Sensor
Model: PN3060
1. General Description
The ifm PN3060 is a “combi” electronic pressure sensor designed for industrial applications. It features a robust stainless steel housing, a high-visibility 4-digit LED display, and a G 1/4 process connection.
This versatile sensor combines two types of outputs in one unit: one PNP switching output for on/off control and one analog output (typically 4-20 mA) for continuous measurement. This makes it ideal for monitoring and controlling pressure in hydraulic, pneumatic, and other fluid-based systems.
Key Features 🎯
- Dual Output: 1x PNP switching output and 1x analog output in a single device.
- Clear Display: Bright 4-digit alphanumeric LED display shows the current pressure.
- Programmable: Outputs, set points, and display units (bar, psi, kPa) are programmable via the pushbuttons.
- Robust Housing: Features a stainless steel housing with an IP67 protection rating.
- High Overpressure Protection: Designed to withstand pressure spikes well above its measuring range.
2. Technical Specifications
Measuring Range
| Parameter | Value |
| Measuring Range | 0 … 80 bar |
| 0 … 8000 kPa | |
| 0 … 1160 psi* | |
| Max. Overpressure (P-max) | 800 bar / 80 MPa / 11600 psi |
*Note: The label in your image shows “0…11600 PSI” for the P-range. This is a common label typo; 11600 PSI (800 bar) is the Maximum Overpressure limit, while the correct measuring range is 1160 PSI (80 bar).
