PPT0020AFN5VA Datasheet/PDFThe PPT0020AFN5VA is a pressure sensor, transducer, and it is used to measure the pressure of gases and liquids, and provide signals to other systems. The PPT0020AFN5VA consists of various parts, such as a silicon die, a back pressure plate, a membrane, and a fill fluid. Together, these components form an effective sensing device, allowing it to accurately measure the pressure of a given medium.
The Working Principle of the PPT0020AFN5VA
The working principle of the PPT0020AFN5VA is fairly simple. The pressure to be measured is applied to the membrane, which then deflects the back pressure plate. This mechanical displacement is picked up by the silicon die and is then amplified and conditioned by the integrated CMOS circuit. The electrical output signal which is transmitted to the conditioning circuit is then further manipulated to provide a corresponding signal which is proportional to the pressure to be measured.
Application Field of the PPT0020AFN5VA
The PPT0020AFN5VA is suitable for a wide range of applications, such as industrial process control, furnaces and tank level control, refrigeration system control, and HVAC systems. The device is also widely used in medical and food industry applications, especially for monitoring the pressure of pipelines and controlling the pressure of liquids and gases in a system.
The PPT0020AFN5VA provides a reliable pressure sensing solution, offering a high accuracy and a wide range of sensitivity. It is able to measure pressure to within a range of -85 to +15 mbar, and the device has an excellent linearity and stability over its operating range. It is also designed to be highly safe, resistant to various environmental conditions such as vibration, shock, and dust.
In addition to these features, the PPT0020AFN5VA is also equipped with various other useful features, including a fast response time, a good signal-to-noise ratio, and a wide operating temperature range, from -20 to +85° C. All these features make the PPT0020AFN5VA a desirable pressure sensing device for a wide range of applications.
