Datasheet
Miniature Low Pressure Sensors
The 26PC Series Miniature Pressure Sensors are small, cost-effective devices intended for use with wet or dry media.
These sensors feature proven sensing technology that uses a specialized piezoresistive micromachined sensing element
to offer high performance, reliability, and accuracy. Each sensor contains four active piezoresistors that form a Wheatstone
bridge. When pressure is applied, the resistance changes and the sensor provides a milliVolt output signal that is
proportional to the input pressure.
The low power 26PC sensors are designed to accommodate pressures from 1 psi to 250 psi and have an operating
temperature range of -40 ºC to 85 ºC [-40 ºF to 185 ºF].
These sensors can accommodate a variety of wet and dry media that are compatible with polyphthalamide (PPA) plastics
and media seals specified in the Nomenclature and Order Guide (see Figure 2). The 26PC sensors are RoHS compliant.
They are designed and manufactured according to ISO 9001 standards.
What makes our sensors better?
•
Wet/Wet capability (i.e., liquids on both ports)
•
Selectable seals available to match media used
•
Higher pressure ranges for use in high pressure applications
•
Wide variety of pressure port types
•
Available in both SIP and DIP packages
