PPT0300DFW5VA

Pressure sensors, transducers, and PPT0300DFW5VA are all components of measuring instruments and all have their own particularities that are essential for various applications. Pressure sensors detect and convert changes in pressure into an electrical signal so that the force exerted can then be measured, while transducers convert pressure into some other type of signal output. The PPT0300DFW5VA is a Digi-Key pressure transducer module that was created to combine both the pressure sensor and the transducer into one device, and its versatility makes it ideal for a range of applications.

The PPT0300DFW5VA offers a range of features making it suitable for various pressure sensing applications. It is designed with a stainless steel sensing diaphragm and comes equipped with a sensing range of 0-3 PSI, and it has an output range of 0 to 1090 mV. It also comes with a gold-plated electrical connection with an omni-directional angle of 0-360°. This makes the PPT0300DFW5VA extremely versatile and allows it to easily fit with a range of sensing applications including test and measurement, automotive, medical, process control and industrial applications.

The working principle of the PPT0300DFW5VA is rooted in a Wheatstone bridge circuit which is a spot of metallization between one side of the diaphragm and the other side of the circuit. When pressure is exerted to the diaphragm, the bridge becomes unbalanced, creating an output voltage. This output voltage is then sent to an electronic circuit and amplified and calibrated in order to accurately measure the diaphragm’s movement. The output voltage generated is proportional to the output applied.

The PPT0300DFW5VA is an extremely robust and reliable transducer module, and it proves to be very useful in the majority of pressure sensing applications. It is also very cost-effective and easy to install, which makes it a favorite amongst engineers and technicians. It is also highly accurate with a linearity of +/- 0.2%, and it can operate in a temperature range of -30°C to 125°C. Furthermore, it has a lifetime of over a million cycles, which is an added advantage that will enable long-term applications with reliability. The PPT0300DFW5VA has proven itself to be a very reliable pressure transducer module, and it is essential for a variety of pressure sensing applications.
