PHP160 High Pressure Miniature Sensor

The EFE PHP160 series is designed for high pressure measurements up to 3000bar. Its monolithic construction makes it well adapted to endurance tests and applications with high frequency pulsations. Being all stainless steel, it is compatible with most media including corrosive fluids used in industry. Unamplified (mV/V output) or equipped with the latest signal conditioning technologies from EFE (0-5 and 0.5-4.5Vdc outputs), it is able to measure very dynamic phenomenon. Its thin film sensitive element ensures high performances and stability over wide temperature range. Models with Vdc built-in electronics (power supply : 8-30Vdc), being low consumption (< 10mA) and with high bandwidth capabilities are particularly adapted to embedded applications.

Features

  • High pressure : up to 3000bar
  • Monolithic Design
  • Fatigue Rated Pressure Sensor
  • Available with Built in Electronic

Applications

  • Automotive
  • Aerospace
  • Test benches
  • Oil & gas

The EFE Engineering Department is responsible for designing all our sensors, from sensing elements to state of the art PCBs. To meet the customer’s high requirements, EFE decided very early on to develop its propriety sensing technology for pressure transducers. This technology, thin film, is manufactured mainly using a physical vapour deposit, and more precisely sputtering process on a metal diaphragm (stainless steel, titanium, inconel, hastelloy, etc.). This film is used by EFE is the only technology which does not require any intermediary between the sensing element and the fluid to be measured as with an oil separator for silicon based sensors or O-rings for ceramic technology.
