Industrial applications of the PBS-CB025SGESSCBMA0Z
- Air compressors and pneumatic lines: Continuously monitors working pressure, detects abnormal pressure drops or spikes to protect the system. The –1 to 24 bar measuring range covers most industrial compressor operating pressures. The 4–20 mA output connects directly to a PLC for automatic control.
- Hydraulic and lubrication systems: Measures hydraulic oil pressure in presses, injection molding machines, and industrial robots. The 316L stainless steel housing resists oil and corrosion, suitable for environments with mild chemicals. The PNP switching output triggers an alarm when pressure exceeds the setpoint.
- Water and wastewater treatment: Measures pressure in water pipes, circulation pumps, and filtration systems. IP67 withstands continuously wet environments. Compound pressure allows measurement of negative pressure (vacuum) when checking suction pumps.
- Food and beverage industry: Monitors pressure in tanks and CIP/SIP lines. Wetted parts made of 316L stainless steel meet food hygiene requirements. The easy-to-read LED display allows operators to quickly check readings on site.
- Automated testing and leak testing: Integrates into leak testers and product pressure testers. A 3 ms response time and ≤1% span accuracy ensure reliable test results in high-speed production.

Frequently Asked Questions about the PBS-CB025SGESSCBMA0Z (FAQ)
Q1. What is special about the measuring range of the PBS-CB025SGESSCBMA0Z?
A: This model features a compound measuring range from -1 to 24 bar, meaning it can measure both negative pressure (vacuum) and positive pressure. This is particularly useful for pneumatic systems, vacuum equipment, or applications with deep pressure dips, saving equipment costs.
Q2. Does the sensor support IO-Link communication?
A: Yes. According to SICK, the PBS series is equipped with IO-Link communication. This feature allows remote process data transmission, parameter setting, and system diagnostics, significantly reducing downtime during maintenance.
Q3. How can I adjust the display when the sensor is installed in a difficult position?
A: The device features a 4-digit LED display that can be electronically rotated 180 degrees. In addition, the sensor housing can be mechanically rotated up to 320° relative to the process connection, making it easy to read values and operate buttons even in tight or inverted installations.
Q4. How do I connect the sensor and set the alarm threshold for a PLC?
A: The sensor uses a standard M12 4-pin connector (L+, L- power supply; 4-20 mA analog signal; PNP switching signal). You can set the pressure setpoint and hysteresis directly on the device using the 3 buttons or configure it via IO-Link if available.
Q5. How much does the PBS-CB025SGESSCBMA0Z cost?
A: Prices vary depending on the supplier, order quantity, and market conditions at the time of purchase. Please contact an authorized distributor directly for a specific quote.
