Description

This pressure transducer utilizes a strain gauge sensing element bonded to a stainless steel diaphragm. Applied pressure causes a deflection, which is converted into a proportional 0.5-4.5V analog output signal via internal signal conditioning circuitry. The all-stainless-steel construction and G1/4″ threaded port ensure durability and a secure seal when installed in pneumatic or hydraulic systems.

Designed for operation with a stable 5V DC supply, the sensor provides a linear output suitable for direct connection to ADC inputs on platforms like Arduino, Raspberry Pi, or industrial PLCs. Its performance is characterized by stable long-term operation, making it suitable for continuous monitoring applications in various media, including air, water, and non-corrosive oils.

Key Features

  • Stainless Steel Body and Diaphragm for corrosion resistance and high burst pressure tolerance.
  • Precision-Compensated Output for stable performance across the specified temperature range.
  • Integrated Surge Voltage Protection enhances reliability in electrically noisy industrial environments.
  • Lightweight, Compact Design (70g) simplifies mounting and integration into existing systems.
  • G1/4" Standard Thread provides a universal fitting for piping and manifold connections.
  • Wide Media Compatibility suitable for use with gases, liquids, and oils.

Applications

  • Hydraulic and Pneumatic System Pressure Monitoring in industrial machinery.
  • Fuel Tank or Oil Reservoir Pressure Sensing in automotive and marine applications.
  • Compressed Air Line Pressure Regulation and Safety Cutoff in HVAC systems.
  • Process Control and Liquid Level Monitoring via hydrostatic pressure in tanks.
  • Prototype and R&D Testing for fluid power systems and automation projects.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the output signal and how do I connect it to an Arduino?

The sensor provides a linear analog voltage output from 0.5V (at 0 MPa) to 4.5V (at 1.2 MPa). Connect the red wire to Arduino 5V, black to GND, and the signal wire (typically yellow or white) to an analog input pin (e.g., A0). Use the `analogRead()` function and map the ADC value to the pressure range based on the sensor's transfer function.

Can this sensor be used with liquids and oils, and what is the thread type?

Yes, the stainless steel construction makes it compatible with water, non-corrosive oils, and gases. It features a standard G1/4" BSPP (parallel) thread, which is common for hydraulic and pneumatic fittings. Ensure you use appropriate sealing tape or an O-ring to prevent leaks at the threaded connection point.

What is the meaning of '1% FS' accuracy?

"1% FS" stands for 1% of Full Scale. For this 1.2 MPa sensor, the total possible error (including nonlinearity, hysteresis, and repeatability) is within ±0.012 MPa (±1.2% of 1.2 MPa). This accuracy defines the maximum deviation between the sensor's output and the true applied pressure across its entire measurement range.

What is the maximum pressure this sensor can withstand?

The rated pressure range is 0-1.2 MPa. While stainless steel sensors typically have a safety factor, the maximum overpressure limit (often 2x or 1.5x the range) is not specified here. For safety and longevity, do not exceed the 1.2 MPa operational limit. For higher pressures, select a sensor with a correspondingly higher rated range.
