Clippard (Cincinnati) recently announced the launch of its Cordis CP1 single-valve pressure sensors.
The company’s Cordis pressure controllers utilize its EVP and DVP proportional valve series. They allow for steady, accurate and repeatable downstream pressure control as demand or process changes, according to the company.
Clippard officials say the result is a very precise linear pressure control within a closed-loop system providing ultra-high resolution and repeatability.
The Cordis includes a microcontroller, an internal pressure sensor, and a Clippard proportional valve. The inlet valve connects to the moderately regulated supply pressure.
Increase a command is increased, and the proportional valve opens up to allow supply pressure to pass over the sensor element. The feature enables active feedback for the microcontroller to satisfy the set point in the process.
If at any point the sensor detects a value higher than the set point, the proportional valve closes and allows process to consume the remaining downstream pressure.
Features include:
- Stand-alone unit or used in conjunction with Clippard’s Cordis pressure controls;
- Downstream sensor feedback;
- Multiple VDC signal outputs;
- Static or dynamic applications;
- Multiple electrical connection options;
- Customizable pressure ranges;
- IP65 rated;
- Temperature-compensated.
