The AP4/AG4 gauge pressure sensor series is composed of a silicon piezeoresistive pressure sensing chip and a signal conditioning integrated circuit. The low-level signal from the sensing chip is amplified, temperature-compensated, calibrated and finally converted to digital data that is proportional with the applied pressure.
The AG version is in a surface mount package. Pressure ranges include: 25 kPa, 50 kPa, 100 kPa, 200 kPa, 500 kPa and 1 MPa.
Features
- 3 mm or 6 mm pressure port for AG4, surface-mount
- 3 mm or 6 mm port, dual-in-line package AP4
- Various pressure ranges from 0-25 kPa up to 0-1000 kPa, depending on model
- Pressure type: Gauge pressure / Gauge negative pressure
