Baumer – Rely on Our Technological Advantage
Pressure Measurement
Hygienic Pressure Sensors
- Fast and high-precision pressure measurement
- Safety thanks to certified hygiene design, 3-A, FDA-compliant, EHEDG-certified
- Intuitive handling and simple process implementation
- All standard hygiene connections available
- Pressure measuring ranges from −1 ... 0 bar to 0 ... 400 bar
Pressure Sensors for Industrial Applications with Flush Membrane
- Process connection with cavity-free design
- Compact installation from G 1/2 A
- Absolute pressure, relative pressure, and vacuum measurement
Baumer pressure sensors are exceptionally precise. The total error band indicates the maximum measurement error (zero point and measured range error, non-linearity, hysteresis, and non-repeatability according to EN 61298-2) and the temperature drift across a temperature range.
Pressure Sensors for Industrial Applications
- For applications in gases, fluids, and hydraulics
- Robust and durable even under extreme conditions
- Simple process implementation
- All standard industry connections available
- Pressure measuring ranges from −1 ... 0 bar to 0 ... 1600 bar
Autoclavable Pressure Sensors
- High-precision and stable pressure measurement
- Safety thanks to certified hygiene design
- Fully autoclavable pressure sensor
- Pressure measuring ranges from −1 ... 0 bar to 0 ... 40 bar
Railway-Certified Pressure Sensors
- Safety thanks to EN 50155 certification
- Secured long-term product availability

Level Switch CleverLevel®
- Easy and universal point level detection for all media
- Independent of the media: liquid, pasty, viscid, or solid
- Differentiates foam and liquid, recognizes separating layers
- Simple cleaning and maintenance
- Compact sensor for very small installation areas
Level Switch – Conductive Level Detectors with Hygiene Design
- With up to 4 measuring points
- CleverLevel® PL20: Adaptive point level detection without parameterization.
- Automatic adaptation to medium.
- For applications in food and beverage with changing recipes or batch production, the CleverLevel® PL20 offers true added value thanks to adaptive setting of the switching point. Without any parameterization effort, the sensor adapts the switching point to the medium for reliable detection. This ensures maximum flexibility and minimized set-up time.
Unaffected by adherence
Even adherence typically present in pasty media will not impair the sensor performance. In the event of any adherence, the sensor adapts the switching level without the need for any parameterization, thereby increasing process safety.
Optimized for cleaning processes
During cleaning processes, such as CIP cleaning, sensors frequently switch incorrectly as they cannot differentiate between the process media and the cleaning media. The CleverLevel® PL20 masters this challenge by ignoring cleaning media such as caustic soda solution and acids during the cleaning process.
Conductivity Measurement
- Precise analysis and exact differentiation of fluid media
- Choice of output of conductivity or concentration
- Large touchscreen with varied presentation of process variables
- Short reaction time and quick temperature compensation
- Integrated programmable switching output
- Available with IO-Link interface or HART® protocol
Phase Separation at the Quality Measuring Point
Fast, temperature-compensating conductivity measurement is a prerequisite for optimum use of detergents and phase changes with pinpoint accuracy. The conductivity sensor CombiLyz® AFI supports CIP cleaning by a technology that is outstanding on the market. The resilient, all-Peek sensor body with integrated temperature compensation delivers measured values faster than any other sensor. Signal quality, together with the measured values from temperature and flow detection, ensures safe CIP cleaning.
Flow Sensors

The sensors from Baumer are suitable for almost all process connections. Thanks to our more than 40 connection types, you do not have to change your system design at all. The Baumer Connection Identifier (BCID) offers a convenient and safe system for identifying the correct process adapter for the integration of your Baumer sensor into the respective application.
How to Find the Suitable Adapter for Your Sensor
First, decide if it should be a threaded connection, clamp connection, or welded connection. For further information, please refer to the next page. In the sensor data sheet, you can find the BCID code for the selected connection type. This encoding is also found on the product data sheets. Accessories with the same BCID code always match – whether adapters, welded parts, clamping rings, or seals.
