Compact pressure sensor solves common
problems
RDP's MLP pressure sensor overcomes the problems in low-pressure measurement of the sensor's physical size and its inevitable sensitivity to position, vibration, shock and orientation
Two common problems in taking low-pressure measurements are the sensor's physical size, due to the large diaphragm required, and its inevitable sensitivity to position, vibration, shock and orientation RDP Electronics solves these problems through a novel patented capacitive technique
The MLP sensor, which is ideal for environmental applications, is suitable for wet/dry differential or gauge measurements.
It is also extremely compact and yet contains internal hybrid electronics to give a high output of +/-1.5V (nom) full-scale.
The MLP's robust stainless steel construction and high over-range capability ensure a long fatigue life.
The sensitive capacitive measurement technology makes the sensors tolerant of shock and independent of orientation.
RDP's MLP range accommodates pressures of up to 1bar with an accuracy of +/-0.5%. Request a free brochure from RDP Electronics ...
