• Rising temperatures reduce the viscosity of the hydraulic oil.
• Hydraulic pressure reduction leads to inconsistent press quality.
• You cannot detect a hydraulic oil temperature rise by pressure monitoring oil alone.
You can use signs of press pressure reduction to prevent the occurrence of product defects
With temperature monitoring, you can detect signs of abnormalities that can cause reductions in hydraulic oil viscosity.
With simultaneous monitoring of temperature and pressure in the same position, you can quantify the optimum ranges for temperature and oil pressure without relying on the experience or skills of maintenance personnel.
• Hydraulic oil temperature rises with repeated tool changes.
• Pipe packing deteriorates, resulting in hydraulic oil leak.
• Oil pressure reduction causes reduction in processing quality.
• The hydraulic pressure system is divided into multiple sections, so finding degraded packing locations takes time.
You can use a rise in hydraulic oil temperature to detect signs of hydraulic oil leak
You can monitor hydraulic oil temperature changes to understand how much of a rise in temperature will have an effect on packing degradation.
By mounting sensors on multiple pipes, you can quickly tell from the sensor LED displays what abnormality has occurred, in which pipe.
• The dispensed amount varies even at the same dispensing pressure depending on changes in the sealant viscosity due to temperature variations.
• Both the dispensing pressure and temperature need to be controlled to dispense the same amount.
• There is no space to install two sensors.

Multi-sensing technology
[Pressure]
Uses a piezoelectric element. Since the sensing surface is made of a high-hard ceramics, it withstands high pressure. Pressure values are detected from changes in resistance of the strain gauge.
[Temp.]
The temperature measuring element mounted to the back of the piezoelectric element measures temperature.
The sensor judges by monitoring "Flow rate + Temperature" and "Pressure + Temperature". Since data outputs to a PLC by the IO-Link communications is possible, it is easy to perform maintenance before entering an abnormal state. For the display colors, you can set 3 patterns, or if combined with Not lit, a total of 4 patterns.
*1. “Patent pending” means that we applied for a patent in Japan, and “Patented” means that we obtained a patent in Japan. (As of July 2022)
Converts to physical quantity units for display.
Detected flow rate values can be adjusted to reference flow rates (red line) of the application. This function is useful when detected flow rates deviate from reference values.
A high luminosity LED gives good visibility even at the back of equipment or in dark locations.
Even if the sensor is installed in dark locations or at the back of equipment at manufacturing sites, a high luminosity LED enables you to easily read the status. You can immediately tell which sensor is showing signs of abnormalities by the colors of the indicators.
After fastening to the adapter, you can adjust the angle so that the display is easy to see.
The display can rotate 180°.
Data at the moment when an error occurs can be identified even if no one is on site.
The output polarity can be easily switched with a button, eliminating the need to use different sensors for each polarity.
This means that maintenance stock can be reduced.
Both flow rate or pressure values and temperature values can be output as analog currents at the same time, which enables simultaneous monitoring of two physical quantities even in equipment using only analog input devices.
Self-diagnoses the sensor's own status, and autonomously sends notification when signs of a connection error or a malfunction appears.
During maintenance, the settings must be the same conditions as when the product was initially mounted. If you use the IO-Link function, you can perform batch setting from a host device. You can manage by quantifying the adjustment that is performed by skilled personnel to avoid affecting the manufacturing quality.
Data can be easily collected from sensors installed in existing equipment and monitored remotely simply by connecting the sensors to Visualization Software F-Scape that highlights on-site issues.
Building a complex system and programming are no longer required.
You can even mount in narrow spaces with multiple pipes arrayed.
* Use our dedicated adapters. In addition, if there is a possibility of pulsations or vibrations to a Pressure Sensor, we recommend the attachment of a throttle (sold separately).
Structure is easily removable from the piping for periodic inspections, etc., and easily cleaned.
