NovaSensor OEM Pressure Sensors

NPI-19 Series Current Driven Medium Pressure, Media Isolated Pressure Sensor

The NovaSensor® NPI Series incorporates state-of-the-art IsoSensor technology, which gives the OEM user the best in price and performance. They are designed to operate in hostile environments and yet give the outstanding sensitivity, linearity, and hysteresis of a silicon sensor. The piezoresistive sensor chip is housed in a fluidfilled cylindrical cavity and isolated from measured media by a stainless steel diaphragm and body. As with all NovaSensor® silicon sensors, the NPI Series employs SenStable® processing technology, providing excellent output stability.

The modular design allows for a variety of pressure port modules, which are hermetically welded to the sensor header module. Standard types A, B, H, and J are shown inside

For compensation of temperature effects, a complete resistor network is supplied on a hybrid ceramic substrate. The IsoSensor design minimizes temperature errors to provide a maximum full-scale offset error of 75% FSO over the 0 to 70°C compensated range.
