Products > Pressure > Sensit Ceramic Pressure Sensors

The P193 pressure sensor is a low cost pressure capsule available in standard ranges from 100mbar to 600 bar. All ranges are available in gauge or absolute format. It is ideal for continuous use in applications where the pressure medium is wet and corrosive and long term stability is of prime importance.

The type P193 pressure sensor is manufactured from high purity alumina ceramic. This material possesses superb chemical and abrasion resistance, making it unrivalled for use with virtually any pressure medium. The diaphragm of the sensing element has a four-active-arm strain gauge bridge fused to its inner face. This direct fusion ensures excellent long term stability and repeatability, which, coupled with the matched bridge network, provides excellent linear thermal characteristics.
