PGP220 High Performance Pressure Sensor

The PGP220 series is designed for high accuracy pressure measurements, from -1 up to 600bar and above on request. The sensing element is an advanced piezo-resistive pressure module which together with the latest compensation techniques, provides high performance measurements. It is available with low (millivolt) or high level (Vdc, mA) outputs. In the case of transducers, the built-in electronic ensures a correction of the pressure element while delivering an analogue output. Specified at 1kHz @-3dB (higher on request), signal‘s bandwidth is not affected by these corrections. Wetted parts being all stainless steel, the sensor is compatible with most media used in Industry, even corrosive ones. High accuracy pressure measurements on test benches is one of the main application for the PGP220 series.

Features

  • High Performance
  • Available with Built in Electronic
  • Extreme accuracy : up to 0,05% FS
  • Large choice of connectors & threads

Applications

  • Aerospace
  • Railway
  • Navy and shipbuilding applications

The EFE Engineering Department is responsible for designing all our sensors, from sensing elements to state of the art PCBs. To meet the customer’s high requirements, EFE decided very early on to develop its propriety sensing technology for pressure transducers. This technology, thin film, is manufactured mainly using a physical vapour deposit, and more precisely sputtering process on a metal diaphragm (stainless steel, titanium, inconel, hastelloy, etc.). This film is used by EFE is the only technology which does not require any intermediary between the sensing element and the fluid to be measured as with an oil separator for silicon based sensors or O-rings for ceramic technology.
