PSF160 Semi Flush Miniature Pressure Sensor

Description

EFE PSF160 Miniature Pressure sensor series is designed for highly dynamic pressure measurements. Thanks to a semi-flush construction, the pressure diaphragm is exposed, in direct contact with the medium, with reduced dead volume. The PSF160 being all titanium, it is compatible with most media including corrosive fluids used in industry. Unamplified (mV/V output) or equipped with the latest signal conditioning technologies from EFE (0-5 and 0.5-4.5Vdc outputs), it is able to measure very dynamic pressure spikes. Its thin film sensitive element ensures high performances and stability over wide temperature range. Models with built-in electronics (power supply : 8-30Vdc), being low consumption ( < 10mA) and with high bandwidth capabilities are particularly adapted to embedded applications.

EFE products are designed to withstand the harshest environments. Supplying pressure sensors for on-board applications for over 35 years has made them aware of the constraints of such environments on sensors, especially miniature.
EFE’s robust technology, associated with proven high quality electronics have been successfully used on board applications in automotive, motor sport, military and aerospace applications.

Harsh environment sensors consist often in applications combining high levels of shocks, vibrations, accelerations and temperature.

Nevertheless unsuitable sensors can also be damaged by corrosive fluids, radiations (nuclear), pressure pulsations or spikes.

In all these cases EFE offers dedicated proven solutions. EFE’s thin film technology has many advantages, being 100% metallic, capable of high numbers of pressure cycles and adapted to gamma radiation environments.
EFE manufacturing process, with adapted burn-in and high numbers of quality controls applied at 100% of their production, as well as the choice of high quality components, is a guarantee of the reliability of their sensors in your application.

Applications : on-board vehicle, flight test, missile, nuclear applications, satellite,etc.
