Pressure sensors and transducers play a vital role in measuring the pressure of gas, liquid or vacuum in an environment. They are used for controlling and monitoring pressure for wide applications, such as motor vehicles, turbines, airplane engines, industrial process control, and many more. The IWPTU-C0446-00 pressure sensor is a typical type of pressure sensor that is designed for tough and challenging conditions. This article will discuss the application field and working principle of IWPTU-C0446-00 pressure sensor.

Application Field of IWPTU-C0446-00 Pressure Sensor

The IWPTU-C0446-00 pressure sensor is capable of measuring between 0.10-4.0 Bar pressure ranges and is ideal for use in applications such as automotive, industrial, and railway applications. It has a robust stainless steel enclosure that allows it to withstand extreme temperatures and is able to operate in temperatures between -40°C to 125°C. The IWPTU-C0446-00 has an acceptable linearity of 0.2%FS, as well as long-term stability of ± 0.1%FS over a temperature range of -20°C to 70°C. Additionally, it is hermetically sealed and has a high resistance to environmental conditions such as shock and vibration.

Working Principle of IWPTU-C0446-00 Pressure Sensor

The IWPTU-C0446-00 pressure sensor is based on the piezo-resistive principle. This principle uses the strain on a specially formed metallic diaphragm, which is caused by a pressure, to change the resistance of the metallic diaphragm. Sensors of this type are often referred to as ‘silicon on stainless’ as the signal processing element is based on strainsensitive silicon resistors which are usually placed directly on the diaphragm. This type of sensor is extremely accurate and offers very high resolution and accuracy.

The IWPTU-C0446-00 pressure sensor contains three integrated resistors made of silicon that are connected in a Wheatstone bridge configuration. As pressure is applied on the diaphragm, it causes strain on the silicon resistors. This strain changes the resistance of the resistors and thus the output voltage of the bridge circuit. This change in voltage is proportional to the applied pressure. This output voltage is amplified, converted into a digital signal and then transmitted to the receiving device.

The IWPTU-C0446-00 pressure sensor has a wide measuring range, and is easy to install and maintain. It is also resistant to shock, vibration and environmental pollution, making it suitable for many industrial applications. Furthermore, its linearity and long-term stability ensure accuracy and reliable performance of the pressure sensor.
