Original Press Release:
Model P356 Pressure Transducer Specifically Designed for Low Pressure Measurements
Moorpark, CA ~ Kavlico's P356 has been designed for low pressure differential/gage pressure applications and is available in pressure ranges of 0 to 0.5 through 0 to 5 PSID/PSIG. This robust sensor has a brass ¼" male NPT pressure port (high side) along with a corrosive resistant alumina ceramic diaphragm that can withstand exposure to a wide array of compatible liquid and gaseous material. The 0.188" diameter reference port (low side) should only be exposed to clean dry air, other non-corrosive gasses, or atmospheric pressure.
Excited by 5 Vdc, the P356 provides a 0.5 to 4.5 linear signal output that is proportional to pressure. The sensor features EMI/RFI protection, has low power consumption, is over-voltage, reverse polarity, and short circuit protected, and exhibits outstanding shock and vibration tolerance.
The variable capacitance sensing element along with Kavlico's proprietary ASIC and hybrid circuit for reliable signal conditioning and maximum electronic integration provide excellent repeatability and hysteresis characteristics.
Typical applications for this highly stable transducer include pneumatic controls, filter monitoring, tank level pressure, waste water systems, fuel vapor pressure, depth measurements, water sprinkler controls, differential pressure measurement for flow determination, pumps, environmental control systems, leak detection, propane and natural gas engine controls, and engine crankcase overpressure.
