What are Pressure Sensors?

Pressure sensors are devices used to measure the force exerted by a fluid (liquid or gas) on a surface. They convert this pressure into electrical signals, enabling accurate monitoring and control in various applications. Pressure sensors are critical in industries like automotive, healthcare, and manufacturing.

Benefits of Pressure Sensors

• Accuracy: Provides precise pressure measurements for optimal system performance.
• Versatility: Works with gases, liquids, and vapours across diverse environments.
• Safety: Detects abnormal pressure levels, preventing system failures or accidents.
• Durability: Designed for high temperatures, corrosive materials, and harsh conditions.
• Efficiency: Improves energy consumption and operational effectiveness.

Why Use Pressure Sensors?

• Process Control: Ensures optimal operation of machinery and systems.
• Predictive Maintenance: Detects wear and potential failures in components.
• Environmental Monitoring: Measures atmospheric and underwater pressures.

Applications of Pressure Sensors

• Automotive: Monitors tire pressure, engine oil, and fuel injection systems.
• Healthcare: Used in medical devices like ventilators and blood pressure monitors.
• Industrial Automation: Regulates pressure in hydraulic and pneumatic systems.
• Aerospace: Ensures safe cabin pressure and fuel management.
• HVAC Systems: Maintains optimal pressure for efficient heating and cooling.

Types of Pressure Sensors

• Absolute Pressure Sensors: Measure pressure relative to a perfect vacuum.
• Gauge Pressure Sensors: Measure pressure relative to atmospheric pressure.
• Differential Pressure Sensors: Compare pressure between two points.
• Sealed Pressure Sensors: Calibrated to measure relative to a fixed pressure.
• Piezoresistive Pressure Sensors: Use strain gauges to detect changes in pressure.
