Honeywell Introduces TruStability NSC Series Pressure Sensors

By DE Editors

Honeywellhas introduced the Honeywell TruStability NCS Series, uncompensated/unamplified board-mount pressure sensors.

The TruStability NSC Series offers a ratiometric analog output for reading pressure over the specified full scale pressure span and temperature range. Because they are uncompensated and unamplified, they offer infinite resolution on the pressure signal. The frequency response is limited only by the end user’s system. Ranging from 1 psi to 150 psi (60 mbar to 10 bar), these sensors will operate as specified from -40 °C to 85 °C ]-40 °F to 185 °F], according to the company. They are available in absolute, differential, and gage types.

Honeywell says the NSC Series’ stability helps to minimize system calibration needs, maximizes system performance, and supports system uptime by eliminating the need to service or replace the sensor during its application life.

The NSC Series also offers a ±0.25 %FSS BFSL (Best Fit Straight Line), which reduces software required to correct system inaccuracies, minimizing system design time, supporting system accuracy and warranty requirements, and helping to optimize system uptime.

The modular, flexible design has many package styles, pressure ports, and options that simplify integration into the device manufacturer’s application. These products are intended for use with non-corrosive, non-ionic gases, such as air and other dry gases, as well as with non-corrosive, non-ionic liquids.

The 10 mm x 10 mm ]0.39 in x 0.39 in] package occupies less area on the PCB and typically allows for easy placement on crowded PCBs or in small devices, the company says.

Honeywell TruStability NSC Series may be used to provide both monitoring and control of pneumatic flow and system pressure for precise and efficient performance in a variety of potential industrial and medical applications.
