Product description
Featuring a state-of-the-art digital compensation and two pressure ports for high and low pressures, Senzors’ model PN1L is our most accurate and precise wet/wet differential pressure transmitter. It utilizes the latest leading-edge technologies to measure pressure and offers unequaled performance, excellent stability and proven reliability. This model is designed to measure low differential pressures under high line pressures (up to 200 bar).
The sensor integrates a single solid-state, piezoresistive MEMS silicon die which acts as the sensitive element and converts pressure into an electrical signal. Using advanced techniques of MEMS fabrication (like wet etching, anisotropic etching), a thin diaphragm is crafted inside the silicon die. The thickness of the diaphragm is individually adapted to each pressure range so as to get the highest possible sensitivity without breaking under full pressure load.
The sensor signal is digitized, compensated and processed by a powerful, low power 32-bit microcontroller. It is then converted back to an amplified analog signal. The digital electronics ensures precise calibration of all critical parameters and achieves very high precision, thermal stability and compensation of all repeatable errors. Each unit is fully tested, compensated and calibrated for pressure and temperature. Each transmitter is shipped with a traceable calibration card.
The electronic circuit is packaged in a hermetically-sealed, all-welded 316L stainless steel housing enabling the PN1L to be immersed in water or pressure washed without internal leakage. This design makes the PN1L ideal for pressure measurements that can involve wet, corrosive or sterile media in the most severe environments.
