Keller-Piezoresistive Pressure Transducer Series 9

( Dwyer )

General:

The Series 9 pressure sensor is the most economic version for pressure ranges from 100 mbar

to 200 bar. The standard version is supplied with connecting pins (leadouts are fitted only on

request) and the serial number is not engraved.

A high-sensitivity piezoresistive silicon chip is used for pressure sensing. The chip is protected

against ambient influences by a stainless steel housing sealed with a concentrically corrugated

diaphragm. The housing is filled with silicone oil for the transfer of the pressure from the

diaphragm to the sensing component.

All metal parts in contact with the pressure media are made of stainless steel 316 L. The fully

welded housing is vacuum-tight. The connecting pins allow direct PCB mounting or can be used for connecting cables.

Typical Applications: Measurement of altitude, aviation electronics, meteorology, servo controls, robotics, hydraulics, sanitary and pharmaceutical engineering, underground mining, injection engineering.

Rugged, Small Dimensions, Light Weight

The piezoresistive chip immersed in silicone oil is welded into a housing made of stainless steel

316L. Diameter 19 mm; Height 5 mm; Weight 8 grams.

High Sensitivity

A nominal signal of 200 mV is obtained at a supply current of 1 mA for standard pressure ranges above 2 bar.

Ranges from 0,1 to 200 bar Absolute pressure, sealed gauge, differential, barometric, vented gauge and wet/wet differential.

Quality

Each pressure transducer is subjected to comprehensive tests for its pressure response and

temperature characteristics, and is delivered with an individual calibration certificate stating the characteristics as well as the results of all tests which were performed. Special testing is available if demanded by the customer.

The Series 9 can also be delivered with a laser welded media isolation diaphragm (see data

sheet Series 3 L - 10 L). The new technique for laser welding stainless steel diaphragms further improves the resistancy against crevice corrosion and still retains all the traditional performance, stability and quality for which KELLER is renowned.
