Amphenol Advanced Sensors NPH Low & Medium Pressure Sensors

Amphenol Advanced Sensors NPH Low and Medium Pressure Sensors are based on NovaSensor's advanced SenStable® piezoresistive sensing technology. The pressure sensing elements feature four piezoresistors. The piezoresistors form by ion implantation and connect to a Wheatstone bridge circuit and silicon diaphragms with high overload capability. The integrated circuit silicon sensor chips are housed in a standard TO-8 electrical package that is PCB mountable. Amphenol Advanced Sensors NPH Low and Medium Pressure Sensors are media compatible with non-corrosive gases or dry air and come in a high-reliability, cost-effective small form factor. Typical applications include P-to-I converters, process controls, HVAC controls, biomedical, aerospace, and computer peripherals.
