Pressure Sensor for Transducers - P571

Click image for larger view

 

The P571 pressure sensor is a high stability, small diameter, stainless steel pressure sensor intended for use in pressure transducers and other OEM pressure measurement applications. Its thin-film metal strain gauge circuit enables a long-term stability of better than 0.1% per year. Options include Hastelloy™, 500 Vac insulation resistance, integral sputtered thin-film RTD, as well as various optional specifications on TC Zero and TC Span.

The unique design can be used with an infinite variety of pressure fittings, which can be supplied by SMD or provided by the customer. Ideal for pressure transducers and transmitters as well as other pressure measurement applications including process control, hydraulic systems, general industrial, down-hole, pressure calibrators, Cenelec applications, aerospace, automotive and more.
