Description
The EFE PHE860 sub-miniature pressure sensor is designed to operate in the harshest environments, including wide ranges operating in different temperatures, mechanical shocks and vibrations. It is well adapted to embedded measurements, on vehicles, aircrafts, satellites, robots, missiles or on test benches for any equipment where space and mass are at a premium. With pressure ranges available from -1 up to 250 bar, its stainless steel construction makes it usable with most fluids used in industry, even corrosive ones. The PHE860 is manufactured with the rugged and proprietary sensitive elements and components developed by EFE. Its manufacturing process, including traceable controls and special burn-in, gives the best insurance of high performances and stability in the most challenging 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.
