DST P10B CANopen, pressure transmitter with a CAN bus interface applications

DST P10B CANopen pressure transmitter - our rugged and well proven sensor platform now with an embedded CAN bus interface.

We deliver a CANopen DS 301/DS 404 communication profile on top of our well known and market proven DST P140 pressure transmitter platform. Allowing you to add sensors - in the control loop or the monitoring system – to your existing higher level fieldbus communication. Creating a more intelligent interface to the smart sensor and reducing complexity on the controller I/O and cable harness side.

The DST P10B CANopen pressure transmitter is designed to provide unrivaled reliability, durability, performance, and not least, digital possibilities in markets, such as the water-pump and air-compressor markets. MEMS technology, stainless-steel design, and a hermetically sealed media interface ensure that the transmitter can withstand even the harshest application environments. And, thanks to its CAN bus communication interface you can get access to additional data/information from the sensor as well as ease your integration into your application.

Features and benefits

Reliability

Optimized product packaging of the MEMS sensor and the signal-conditioning electronics deliver excellent vibration resistance, thermal management properties and protection against moisture ingress.
Thorough testing

A "test-to-failure" method is an important part of the Danfoss product-development process, providing increased product-design and specification insight. This method also allows for faster
Future-proof

The diagnostic capabilities of this transmitter will benefit customers today — saving on troubleshooting costs — and well into the future, as more and more products have integrated electronic capabilities.
Scalability

The new and modular electronics platform and the fieldbus interface enables customers to configure and fine-tune the sensor performance specific to their application needs.
Lower system cost and simplified root cause analysis

Simplify the wire harness and free up analog I/O’s at the edge/application by connecting your sensor to your fieldbus channel
