Differential Pressure Sensor: Detect Clogged Filters Early
The Differential Pressure Sensor from MachineSens IoT is a wall-mounted sensor that measures the pressure difference across HVAC systems, filters and ventilation paths to detect clogged filters. It connects over LoRaWAN or Wi-Fi, and sends readings to the BuildOT One platform for alerts and trend analysis.

What the Differential Pressure Sensor does
- Detects clogging.A rising pressure drop across a filter shows it is loading with dust.
- Replaces calendar changes.Change filters when the reading says so, not on a fixed date.
- Protects airflow.Catching restriction early helps fans work less hard and keeps ventilation steady.
- Reports wirelessly.No signal cabling back to a controller.
Where it is used
Air handling units, fan coil systems, ducts and clean areas in offices, hospitals, schools, malls and hotels. Dust is a constant issue in UAE and GCC buildings, so filters load faster than many planners expect.
Works with BuildOT One
- Predictive Center flags filters nearing replacement.
- FM360 schedules and records the filter change.
- Air Quality and Wellbeing links filter condition to indoor air results.
