Pressure Sensors, Transducers

The P-3000S-501G-10 is a type of pressure sensor. It is a pressure transducer, which is designed to measure absolute pressure readings or differential pressure readings based on the application. This pressure transducer is well suited for use in a variety of industries and applications, such as oil and gas, HVAC, industrial, process control, marine engineering, aerospace, and more.

A pressure transducer is a device used to measure the pressure of a liquid or gas. It converts the pressure into an electrical signal which can be read by a computer or other measuring device. It is typically made up of a pressure sensing element, a housing, a diaphragm or membrane, and electrical connections. The sensing element is made of a material that deforms in response to pressure, creating an electrical charge that is proportional to the pressure. This electrical signal is then sent to a computer or other device that is able to interpret it.

The P-3000S-501G-10 is a pressure transducer designed to measure absolute pressure readings or differential pressure readings. It features a high-precision, micromachined Wheatstone bridge with gold-plated contacts. It also has an onboard EEPROM for storage of pressure ranges and calibration data, plus zero and span trimpots for in situ calibration. The transducer has a high overpressure capability of 500bar and a stainless steel construction for use in harsh environments. It is compatible with a variety of industry standard protocols, including analog voltage, current, and digital I2C and SPI solutions.

The P-3000S-501G-10 has a wide range of applications in various industries. It is ideal for process control, HVAC, automotive, pumps and compressors, combustion engines, and other uses. It can be used in applications where pressure readings must be taken accurately and quickly. This includes monitoring fuel pressure in automotive and marine fuel systems, air pressure in combustion engines, and gas pressure in process control systems. Additionally, it can be used to measure the pressure of fluids in flow control and process control applications.

The working principle of the P-3000S-501G-10 pressure transducer is based on the piezoresistive effect. A thick film layer is deposited onto a silicone wafer and the printed signal traces are connected to the contact pads. As pressure is applied to the thick film, the strain in the film causes a change in the electrical resistance at the contacts, which is then measured by the transducer. This electrical resistance is proportional to the applied pressure and can be used to measure the pressure of a liquid or gas.

In conclusion, the P-3000S-501G-10 is a powerful and versatile pressure transducer. It offers high accuracy, repeatability, and reliability, and can be used in a variety of applications. It features a high-precision, micromachined Wheatstone bridge, onboard EEPROM memory, and a stainless steel construction. The transducer operates based on the piezoresistive effect, where a strain in the thick film causes a change in resistance that is proportional to the applied pressure.
