Description

The XPXL/XPX and XPCL/XPC Series sensors integrate silicon micromachined sensing technology, temperature compensation, and calibration in a complete family of low cost packages. This series offers the most cost-effective solution for design requirements. These piezoresistive pressure sensors use micromachined silicon chips mounted on a ceramic and protected with a plastic cap. Several tube arrangements with nylon housings are available for various pressure applications. On devices of 5 psi and above, the topside of the chip is protected against humidity by a Silgel coating. While the sensors are designed for use with noncorrosive, nonionic pressure media, they accommodate many gases that are used in medical applications.
