Meeting Harsh Media Pressure Sensor Requirements in New Electronic Control Modules

Many mechanical applications are increasingly employing electronics. These types of applications previously used multiple modules to manage multiple functions or simple electrical controls such as switches. Because designs are getting more complex and users demand improved switch functionality, greater system efficiency, and smarter, more sensitive operational controls, developers are looking for more advanced component solutions.

Of particular importance are new pressure sensors that can replace less accurate pressure switches in, for example, thermal cycling processes to improve efficiency and to allow further system automation. For a wide range of industrial applications in areas such as energy, heavy equipment, transportation, food & beverage, or in certain medical environments, there is a need to integrate pressure sensors.

A key consideration for selecting the right pressure sensor is whether they must frequently operate in severe conditions where dust, chemicals, shock, and vibration and temperature all threaten performance, reliability and longevity.
