Applications for silicon-based pressure sensors in low cost plastic packages are usually limited to air and dry gases without adding some form of additional media isolation. For Honeywell’s TruStability Pressure Sensors, an option now allows connecting one port of the sensor to condensing humidity or non-corrosive liquid media, such as de-ionized water. This simplifies the use of the HSC (High Accuracy Silicon Ceramic) Series and the SSC (Standard Accuracy Silicon Ceramic) Series in this family.
Both the HSC and SSC Series are temperature compensated, calibrated, and provide an amplified signal. The HSC Series has a ±1% total error band specification across a 0°C to 50°C [32°F to 122°F] temperature range. The SSC Series provides a ±2% total error band specification across a wider -20°C to 85°C [-4°F to 185°F] temperature range.
