Complete Guide to ATG Pressure Control Elements, Sensors, and Switches for Pneumatic Automation

Introduction

In modern industrial automation, precise pressure control and monitoring form the foundation of reliable, efficient pneumatic systems. Whether you're managing assembly lines, packaging equipment, or specialized manufacturing processes, selecting the right pressure control components and sensors directly impacts your system's performance, energy efficiency, and uptime.

ATG Pneumatic Industrial Platform offers a comprehensive portfolio of pressure control elements, detection sensors, and flow monitoring devices designed to meet the demanding requirements of today's automated facilities. This guide provides an overview of our key product series, their features, and typical applications to help procurement specialists and end-users make informed decisions.

Pressure Control Elements – Precision Meets Flexibility

Pressure control is the art of translating electrical signals into precise pneumatic outcomes. ATG's proportional valve series delivers continuous, stepless pressure regulation for applications requiring remote control and programmability.

ANITV1000/2000/3000 Series – Electrical Proportional Valves

These valves adjust the spool opening area based on control signal magnitude, achieving precise pressure regulation. By using electrical signals to control air pressure, they enable continuous, stepless adjustment—ideal for applications requiring remote and programmable control. Modern proportional technology can reduce compressed air usage by up to 50% while improving sustainability.

ANITV0000 Series – Slim Proportional Valves

Sharing the same core technology as the standard series, the slim design is optimized for space-constrained installations. These valves are perfect for compact automation equipment where panel space is at a premium but precision cannot be compromised.

ANITV2090 Series – Vacuum Proportional Valves

Designed specifically for vacuum applications, these valves use proportional solenoids to replace conventional control elements. They feature pressure compensation capabilities, ensuring output pressure and flow remain stable regardless of load variations—critical for vacuum gripping and material handling systems.

ANITVX2030 Series – High-Pressure Proportional Valves

For applications requiring a higher pressure range, this series offers:

  • Maximum supply pressure: 0 MPa
  • Adjustable pressure range: 0.01 to 3.0 MPa
  • Maximum flow rate: 3000 L/min (ANR)
  • Compatible gases: Air, N₂, O₂, Ar

These valves excel in specialized industrial processes requiring precise high-pressure control.

Pressure Detection Elements – Digital Accuracy for Critical Monitoring

Modern pneumatic systems require more than basic on/off detection. Digital pressure switches and sensors serve as the "nervous system" of automated equipment, providing real-time feedback for monitoring, diagnostics, and process optimization.

ANZSE10(F)/ANISE10 Series – Slim Pressure Switches

These ultra-compact digital pressure switches combine space-saving design with reliable performance. Key features include simple operation, vibration resistance, high control accuracy, and extended service life. Their slim profile makes them ideal for control panels with high component density.

ANZSE30A(F)/ANISE30A & ANZSE40A(F)/ANISE40A Series – Two-Color Display High-Precision Digital Pressure Switches

Building on the slim design philosophy, these series add:

  • Two-color displays that change based on output status (green for normal, red for triggered)—enabling operators to assess system health from a distance without reading numerical
  • Enhanced precision for critical pressure monitoring applications
  • Multiple output options including switch and analog signals

ANDP-100 Series – High-Performance Digital Display Pressure Sensors

As the flagship pressure sensing solution, the ANDP-100 series delivers:

  • Exceptional accuracy and repeatability
  • Digital display for local monitoring
  • Versatile mounting and connection options
  • Ideal for applications requiring continuous pressure feedback to PLC systems

When selecting digital pressure switches, key considerations include pressure range compatibility, output type (PNP/NPN vs. analog), accuracy requirements, response time, and installation space.

Flow Detection Elements – Monitoring Media Movement

Flow sensors provide critical data about system performance, enabling leak detection, consumption monitoring, and process optimization.

ANPF3W Series – Water-Use Digital Flow Switches

Designed specifically for water and water-based media, these sensors feature:

  • Three-color, two-screen displays for simultaneous monitoring of multiple parameters
  • Integrated temperature sensors and flow adjustment valves
  • Rotatable displays (up to 225°) for optimal visibility in any mounting orientation
  • Compact, space-saving design

These switches are widely used in applications such as chiller circulation monitoring and cooling system management.

Selection Guidelines for Procurement Professionals

When specifying pressure sensors and switches for your pneumatic systems, consider these factors:

Consideration Why It Matters
Pressure Range Select sensors rated for your actual operating pressure to ensure optimal resolution and accuracy
Output Type Match outputs to your PLC inputs—switch outputs for basic control, analog for continuous monitoring
Accuracy & Repeatability In automation, repeatability often matters more than absolute accuracy
Response Time High-speed applications require fast response with adjustable filtering to prevent false triggers
Installation Environment Consider space constraints, display visibility, and wiring requirements
