Micro-sensors measure very low pressures

Edited by the Manufacturingtalk editorial team Mar 12, 2002

Piezoresistive pressure sensors accurately measure ultra-low pressure in very small housings.

Sensortechnics' new PUL piezoresistive pressure sensors accurately measure ultra-low pressure in very small housings.

A completely new micromachined structure provides offset temperature compensation and virtually no position sensitivity.

The new generation pressure sensor chip improves temperature effects and mechanical stress errors for an overall enhanced sensor performance.

PUL ultra-low pressure sensors are ideally suited for demanding low pressure measurement.

Applications include respiration, anesthesia and HVAC.

Miniature housings with different pressure ports enables OEMs to use PUL sensors in nearly every design.

Important features of the new PUL sensors are: * Pressure ranges from 0 - 2.5mbar to 0 - 75mbar.

* Virtually no position sensitivity.

* Offset temperature compensated.

* Very low warm-up and long term stability error.

* Miniature housings with different tube connections.

With the addition of the PUL Series of ultra-low pressure sensors to the already established low pressure sensor range, Sensortechnics can now offer Original Equipment Manufacturers the ability to measure as low as 0-2.5mbar FS using different miniature housings.

The new PUL pressure sensors are exclusively available from Sensortechnics.
