MPX2200GP

Pressure sensors and transducers are a broad field of technology. One type of pressure sensor is the MPX2200GP. It is a type of MEMS (micro-electro-mechanical systems) pressure sensor which utilizes capacitive sensing to accurately measure both positive and negative pressures. This type of pressure sensor is commonly used in HVAC/R and air management systems, as well as in fire and gas safety systems. This article will discuss the application field and working principle of the MPX2200GP pressure sensor.

The MPX2200GP pressure sensor is designed for highly accurate measurements within a wide range of pressure. It is a digital pressure sensor which is able to measure absolute and gauge pressures over the large range of 0-20 SE (Standard Atmospheric) up to 150 SE. The MPX2200GP is a customizable device that allows the user to configure both the pressure range and output format. This makes it an ideal choice for applications where accuracy and flexibility are key.

The MPX2200GP pressure sensor is based on a capacitive sensing principle. It consists of two titanium plates on which a dielectric material is deposited. An external pressure causes the two plates to be pushed together, thereby increasing the capacitance between them. The capacitance is measured by an internal electronics circuit and converted into a 0-5 VDC linear output signal, which can then be connected to a microcontroller or data logger. As the pressure increases, the output voltage increases linearly.

In addition to its pressure range and output format, the MPX2200GP is equipped with features that make it suitable for a variety of applications. These features include a high accuracy of 1.5% FS (full scale) of span, and a wide temperature range of -20 to 85 °C. It is also compliant with RoHS standards and is designed for easy integration into a variety of devices and systems.

The MPX2200GP is a versatile device that can be used in a variety of applications. It is suitable for HVAC/R applications, as well as for fire and gas safety systems. It is also suitable for general industrial applications, automotive, and aerospace applications. Additionally, the device can be used for product testing, pressure mapping and other types of pressure measurement applications.

The MPX2200GP is an accurate and reliable pressure sensor that offers a wide range of features and capabilities. Its ease of integration makes it ideal for a variety of applications. Its wide pressure range and output format make it suitable for both absolute and gauge pressure measurements.
