Miniature high performance pressure sensor for gas and liquid gauge pressure ranges to 250 bar

Variohm EuroSensor has expanded its range of competitively priced pressure sensors with the new EPT1400 series for gas and liquid gauge pressure ranges to 250 bar. The miniature 304 grade stainless steel sensor is based on an M8 port configuration in a 14 mm diameter, SW14 body with a nominal length of 32 mm.

The EPT1400’s design features a hermitically welded, thin film measuring cell coupled with high level output circuitry that yields a response time of <1ms with an accuracy of < +/-0.8% and long term stability of < ± 0.1 %. Built for use in harsh environments, including automotive, heavy industrial, HVAC, off-road construction and agricultural applications, the sensor is sealed to IP67 and has a generous shock and vibration rating as well as an operational temperature range from -40° to +125°C.
The impressive specification also includes an overrange pressure of up to 4x rated and burst pressure rating to6x. With a working life in excess of 10 million cycles and a sensing element that contains no silicon and no internal O-rings, safe and reliable operation is ensured.
The new sensor is available in 10 pressure ranges from 0 to 2 bar up to 250 bar with ordering options including a choice of 0…5 VDC or 10….32 VDC excitation voltage for a 0….4.5 V output signal and is available with 600mm free cable or a sleeved and booted option. Custom options are available on request and a combined pressure and PT1000 temperature sensor version, the EPTTE1400, is also offered.
