Low cost pressure sensor suits OEM applications

Built for volume production and aimed at OEM applications, the EPT2200 series features a thin film piezoresistive measuring element and is housed in a rugged and durable 22mm diameter brass casing with IP66 protection. The sensor is available with a choice of G1/4A or M12 pressure port options and 0 to 5V or 4 to 20mA output signals; electrical interfacing covers Packard Metri-Pack and Miniature EN175301-803-C connectors or a 600mm free cable version. The EPT2200 is supplied in six pressure ranges from 6 to 40bar with accuracy of +/-1.0% at room temperature and stability of better than +/-0.1%. The sensor is suitable for use in harsh industrial environments and is compatible with many medias, including oil and compressed air for automotive, HVACR, agricultural and other demanding applications areas. A generous shock and vibration rating and operational temperature range from -40 to 105°C ensures high reliability, whilst over-range and burst pressure capability of 2 and 5x respectively (up to max. of 69 and 103bar) permit safe use over its expected life of more than 10million pressure cycles. Short circuit and reverse polarity protection is also included.
