Merit Sensor has unveiled the TRVF Series, a fully compensated pressure sensor engineered to deliver precise and reliable measurements in demanding industrial and automotive applications. This series is designed to operate effectively in environments characterized by high temperatures and exposure to aggressive media.
Key Features and Technical Specifications
The TRVF Series offers a pressure measurement range from 1 to 300 psi (0.07 to 20.7 bar), accommodating both absolute and gauge configurations. It maintains accuracy across a broad temperature spectrum, from -40°C to 150°C, ensuring consistent performance under extreme conditions.
Constructed with wetted materials such as silicon, glass, and ceramic, the TRVF sensors exhibit enhanced compatibility with various harsh media, including air, gases, and liquids. This material selection contributes to the sensor’s durability and longevity in challenging environments.
The sensor’s design incorporates a MEMS silicon die mounted atop a ceramic pressure port, facilitating backside pressure measurement. This configuration isolates the media to the ceramic, silicon, and die-bond materials, protecting the onboard electronics and ensuring measurement stability.
Applications Across Industries
The TRVF Series is suitable for a wide array of applications, including:
- Industrial automation systems
- HVAC and refrigeration units
- Automotive systems such as transmission, oil, and fuel rail pressure monitoring
- Hydrogen fuel systems
- Exhaust gas recirculation and crankcase pressure measurements
Its robust construction and precise measurement capabilities make it an ideal choice for environments where reliability and accuracy are paramount.
