Vacuum sensor for OVEM vacuum generators
With the OVEM vacuum generator from Festo, continuous status monitoring of the entire vacuum system is made possible with an integral sensor.
The addition of an LCD makes visible monitoring possible with additional
bar graphs. A vacuum sensor adds diagnostic preventive maintenance
features to the vacuum system and therefore greatly reduces the risk of
machine downtime. An energy-efficient solution, the OVEM vacuum
generators are available with 4 venturi nozzle sizes for a wide
performance spectrum and offer metric and inch connection types for
added convenience to users. If a leak develops, either gradually or
abruptly, or in the event that vacuum evacuation time becomes longer,
the situation is detected automatically by the vacuum generator. An energy-efficient solution, the
OVEM vacuum generators are available with 4 venturi nozzle sizes for a
wide performance spectrum and offer metric and inch connection types for
