Sensortechnics’ new pressure transducer Series PS9000 offers OEMs low-cost pressure measurement for aggressive and corrosive liquids and gases. An all-welded stainless steel diaphragm eliminates all internal elastomeric seals and also releases users from O-Ring compatability issues which can be problematic for applications with aggressive media or high purity requirements. These small transducers are available for low-pressure applications from only 200 mbar (3psi) and offer outstanding sensitivity and linearity with low hysteresis. The piezoresistive sensor chip is housed in a fluid-filled cylindrical cavity and a resistor network is supplied on a hybrid ceramic substrate for compensation of temperature effects. Reliable piezoresistive technology makes these new stainless steel sensors a perfect fit for many medical, environmental and industrial applications. The new PS9000 series is exclusively available from Sensortechnics. Important features of the new PS9000 Series include a rugged stainless steel housing only 21.8 mm in diameter, all welded stainless steel diaphragm, pressure ranges from 0-200 mbar (0-3psi) to 0-35 bar (0-500psi) FS, gage and absolute versions, output signal 0-100 mV, and compensated and calibrated precision temperature.
