Mouser Electronics is the first global distributor to stock the new NPR-101 harsh media pressure sensor from Amphenol Advanced Sensors. This silicon-based micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) device provides highly accurate pressure readings for harsh media, including vehicle transmission fluid, oil, and fuel.
The Amphenol Advanced Sensors NPR-101 harsh media pressure sensor uses "Backside Absolute Pressur" technology designed for harsh media exposure, which eliminates the direct contact of the sensing circuitry with the applied media. The device is coupled with an application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) to provide a ratiometric output proportional to the applied pressure.
The NPR-101 sensor includes integrated diagnostics and operates at a full-scale pressure range of 300PSIA (20.68Bar) and an output range of 10 to 90 per cent of the 4.5-5.5V DC supply voltage. The sensor features a proof pressure of 1.5 times the rated pressure and a burst pressure of 2.5 times the rated pressure. In the -20 to +100degC range, the sensor's total error band is +/-2 per cent (+/-3 per cent in the range of +100 to +140degC).
