The SX Series surface mount sensors provide the most cost effective method of measuring absolute and gage pressures in a fully packaged sensor. The unique package design allows measurement of both gage and absolute pressure and a ported package option in a true surface mount sensor. Convenient pressure rages are available to measure gage and absolute pressures for 0 psi to 1 psi to 0 psi to 150 psi. The SX series of SMT sensors feature the standard SX chip in a ceramic surface mount package. The standard version features a low profile plastic lid to better withstand high temperatures. The optional ported device offers a tube attachment port that is particularly useful in gage applications.
The SX SMT series sensors are designed primarily for use with clean dry gases such as air, nitrogen, and other like gasses. They offer a 4-pin closed bridge configuration for electrical connection with additional pads provided for mechanical support. Pulsed power is recommended to achieve maximum accuracy and conserve battery power in portable applications.
