Phoenix Sensors, a US-based manufacturer, specializes in industrial wireless pressure transmitters like the WEPS06 series. This series offers a cost-effective alternative to traditional wired transducers, making it ideal for installations in hard-to-reach or expensive environments. Furthermore, the transducer integrates seamlessly with the PS6W-1 single-channel wireless receivers, delivering a convenient “plug-and-play” solution for pressure measurement needs.
The WEPS06 boasts several key features. Its piezo-resistive ceramic sensor, housed in stainless steel, ensures excellent durability and media compatibility, even in harsh conditions. Additionally, a swivel adaptor simplifies alignment with the PS6W-1 receiver, enhancing ease of use. The transducer achieves an impressive line-of-sight range of up to 2500 feet, depending on the receiver model (refer to the PS6W-1-1 datasheet for details). To ensure reliability, each device includes temperature compensation, precise calibration, and a traceable serial number
For shorter ranges and data logging applications, customers can choose the WEPS05 series, which offers a 100-foot range along with notification and storage features. Alternatively, the WEPS04 wireless sensors provide an excellent solution for basic short-range (100 feet) applications that do not require connectivity. Consequently, customers can select from a variety of options to meet their specific application requirements, whether they prioritize range, connectivity, or simplicity.

Package
Significantly, the body design is made of SS316, which allows for easy low-cost manufacturability and corrosion resistance. Vibration proof design for use in industrial applications.
Stability
Not only that, the silicon MEMS pressure sensor element is mounted to a ceramic base and sealed into the SS316 housing. The selection of thermally capability materials reduce the mechanical stress on the sensor resulting in greater stability over time and temperature.
Additional stability is gained from factory stabilization of all sensors.
Pressure port
1/4” -18NPT thread is the standard SS fittings. Other port fittings such as 7/16-20UNF, and ¼” BSP are available for OEM customers.
Media
The pressure port is tolerant to most media including but not limited to oil, air, gas, and non-corrosive media. Sensor will only work on a temporary basis in any non-air application. Sensor will need to have a period of time to dehydrate.
Wetted parts
When checking media capability, the wetted surface is composed of 316 SS and Viton.
Pressure ranges
Standard pressure ranges are 15, 30, 75, 150, 300, 750, 1500, 3500, and 6000 psi in gauge.
