Passively Compensated Pressure Sensor

The AP series pressure sensor from Merit Sensor^TM is calibrated at room temperature using laser trimmed resistors. This pressure sensor series offers a pressure range from -15psi to 300psi with an operating temperature range of +10°C to +40°C and an accuracy of ±2% FSO. The AP series from Merit Sensor^TM utilises a piezoresistive
Wheatstone bridge with a chemically etched silicon diaphragm and is suitable for high volume and low to medium-pressure applications.

• Room temperature calibrated pressure sensor
• Pressure range from -15 psi up to 300 psi (also available in higher pressures)
• Burst pressure rating of 3x (full scale pressure)
• Pressure type of gauge
• Temperature range +10°C to +40°C
• Accuracy of ±2 %FSO
• Suitable for air, liquid and gas media compatibility
• Custom options available

Typical applications for the Merit Sensor^TM AP series include:

• Medical
