Description
The transducers are based on piezoresistive silicon pressure sensors
from our own clean room.
The robust stainless steel/plastic casing is accentuated
through its excellent mechanical decoupling.
Features
Piezoresistive MEMS technology
Measured media:
Air, non-aggressive gases (gas humidity 0 ... 100% r.h.)
and non-aggressive fluids.
Unsuitable for substances which react with glass, silicon, stainless
steel, silicone glue (p
r
≤
10 bar) or epoxy glue (p
r
> 10 bar).
Whetstone bridge with mV output, proportional to pressure
and ratiometric to supply voltage
RoHS-compatible, halogen-free
Dual-in-line package for PCB mounting
Dimensional drawings
Type KD (4.8 mm tube fitting)
Type KC (M5 thread connection)
All dimensions in mm

Nonlinearity L (including pressure hysteresis)
The nonlinearity is the deviation of the real sensor characteristic V
out
= f(p) from the ideal straight line.
It can be approximated by a polynomial of second order, with the maximum at p
