VDO Pressure Sender 80 PSI 1/4-18 NPT

The VDO Pressure Sender 80 PSI 1/4-18 NPT (MPN 360-005) is an electronic pressure transducer designed to convert hydraulic or pneumatic system pressure into an electrical signal for remote gauge display and system monitoring. This sender operates across a 6–24V input range and outputs a proportional resistance signal (10–180 Ohm) that allows operators to monitor pressure conditions on dash-mounted instruments or telemetry systems common in tactical vehicles, field equipment, and mobile command stations.

The unit features a knurled nut connection and 1/8-27 NPTF threaded port for direct integration into hydraulic manifolds, air brake systems, or pressurized fluid circuits. Its 80 PSI maximum range (approximately 5 bar) makes it suitable for light to medium-pressure applications where accurate real-time monitoring is required without the weight or bulk of mechanical gauges. The compact 2×2×5-inch form factor and minimal 0.25 lb weight allow flexible mounting in space-constrained environments typical of vehicle dashboards or portable fluid systems.

This pressure sender is commonly used in emergency response vehicles, off-road recovery platforms, diesel engine monitoring systems, and tactical equipment trailers where ground-based electrical architecture simplifies wiring and eliminates mechanical linkage complexity. The VDO brand is recognized for industrial-grade durability in automotive and fluid systems markets, making this sender appropriate for operators and technicians who prioritize dependable pressure telemetry over extended operational periods.
