ABB PFEA112-20 Pressure Module Sensor: Precision Control for Industrial Systems

Engineered for precision pressure measurement in demanding industrial settings, the ABB PFEA112-20 Pressure Module Sensor delivers consistent performance where accuracy matters most. This component integrates seamlessly into automation frameworks, offering real-time data acquisition for process optimization across manufacturing, energy, and chemical sectors.

Field applications demonstrate this sensor’s versatility in high-stakes environments. Take oil refineries, where pressure fluctuations demand immediate response – the PFEA112-20 maintains stability even under extreme temperature variations. A technician from a chemical processing plant noted its “rock-solid performance monitoring reactor vessel pressures over 18 months without recalibration.” When paired with ABB’s AC800M controllers or integrated into System 800xA architectures, the module becomes part of a larger ecosystem including DSQC robot components and PM866 processor modules.

Technical strengths lie in its dual-channel redundancy design, which minimizes downtime during critical operations. The aluminum housing resists corrosion in humid environments, while the module’s 0.1% full-scale accuracy outperforms competitors’ ±0.25% standards. Unlike typical sensors requiring frequent field adjustments, ABB’s proprietary calibration algorithm maintains stability across wide operating ranges. Compatibility extends beyond native ABB systems – successful deployments include interfacing with Siemens S7-1500 controllers and Rockwell Automation’s ControlLogix platforms through standard 4-20mA protocols.
