Pressure Sensors

A pressure sensor, also known as a pressure transducer or pressure transmitter, is a device that measures pressure and converts it into an electrical signal. Commonly used pressure transducers include optical sensors, hall-effect sensors, variable-capacity transducers, semiconductor sensors, and strain gauge transducers. Each of these have their own advantages and disadvantages and the type that is used depends on the application.

Transducers

A transducer is a device that converts one form of energy to another. It works by generating a signal with one form of energy and transmitting it across a medium (usually air or water) to another location where it is converted into the desired form of energy. Transducers are the most common type of sensors used in control systems. Common types include thermistors, photocells, piezo-electric crystals, and linear actuating transducers.

4525DO-SS5AI100GP Application Field and Working Principle

The 4525DO-SS5AI100GP is a pressure transducer designed to measure pressure in a variety of industrial and laboratory applications. It works by converting a physical pressure into an electrical signal using a Wheatstone bridge circuit. The Wheatstone bridge is a type of galvanometer that measures dynamically changing electrical currents and works by sending an alternating current through four parallel resistors and detecting the difference in their resistive values. This which in turn measures the change in pressure applied to the transducer.

The 4525DO-SS5AI100GP is a stainless steel sensor and is designed for industrial, chemical, and water treatment applications. It has a full temperature range of -40°C to +110°C and a working pressure range from -100 mbar to +100 mbar. It is compatible with standard 4-20mA protocol and it has an adjustable pressure range. The 4525DO-SS5AI100GP also has a three-year limited warranty and is CE-certified.

In summary, the 4525DO-SS5AI100GP is a pressure transducer used in industrial and laboratory applications. It is capable of measuring pressures ranging from -100 mbar to +100 mbar and can work at temperatures ranging from -40°C to +110°C. By using a Wheatstone bridge circuit, the transducer is able to convert the physical pressure into an electrical signal, making it ideal for remote sensing applications.
