Products Description
PSC12 CERAMIC THICK FILM PRESSURE SENSOR MODULE
Based on PSC12 both monolithic and flush diaphragm pressure sensor element, PSC12V/IIC pressure sensor module is made with a ceramic base cell and a flush diaphragm and work following the piezoresistive principle. The Wheatstone bridge is screen printed on one side of the ceramic diaphragm which is, in turn, glued to the sensor’s body.
The bridge faces the inside where a cavity is made. Signal conditioning electronics are added to generate 0.5…4.5 V ratiometric output, current loop 4…20 mA or 0…10 V non ratiometric output and also I2C digital output signal.
Pressure and temperature calibration are done electronically with the on-board ASIC and can be performed in bar or in psi. Electronics provide offset and span correction when temperature changes. Aging detection and compensation are constantly performed. This new method guarantees good precision and long-term stability.
Due to the excellent chemical immunity of the the Al2O3 ceramic, the PSC12//V/IIC pressure sensor module are suitable for nearly all aggressive media.
