Low Pressure Oil-Filled Stainless Steel Pressure Sensor Model 82

The Model 82 is a 19mm low profile, media compatible, piezoresistive silicon pressure sensor packaged in a 316L stainless steel housing. The sensing package utilizes silicone oil to transfer pressure from the 316L stainless steel diaphragm to the sensing element. A ceramic substrate is attached to the package that contains laser-trimmed resistors for temperature compensation and offset correction. The circuit is trimmed so that the output of each sensor is 100mV ±1% for the full scale pressure with a 10V input. This product is intended for many pressure applications such as medical instruments, process control, fresh and waste water measurements, partial vacuum gas measurement, pressure transmitters, and tank level systems. The constant voltage versions include various process fittings and electronic connections such as solder pads, ribbon cable, or cable with connector.
