Miniature Low-Cost Pressure Sensors for High-Volume Applications

Miniature Low-Cost Pressure Sensors for High-Volume Applications

16 March 2006

Sensortechnics presents the HPX series from Honeywell for accurate low-cost gage or absolute pressure measurement from 300 mmHg to 100 psi (400 mbar to 7 bar). These uncompensated, un-calibrated basic sensors deliver ratiometric mV output signals and offer an excellent price/performance ratio. Due to their wide operating temperature range (–40…125 °C) these devices can be used for demanding applications involving dry air and non-corrosive gas pressures.

The HPX series offers two different miniature package styles for maximum OEM manufacturing flexibility: 6-pin DIP housings for through-hole assembly and 8-pin SOIC packages for surface mounting.

Important features of the new HPX series are:

  • Gage and absolute pressure measurement from 300 mmHg to 100 psi
  • Excellent price/performance ratio for high-volume applications
  • Wide operating temperature range from –40…125 °C
  • Miniature DIP and SMT housings

HPX pressure sensors are ideally suited for high-volume applications including medical equipment, altimeters and barometers, pneumatic controls, leak detection and consumer goods.
