MP40 Miniature Pressure Transducer

Flush mount pressure transducer


Key features

  • Flush-mountable, cost-effective pressure transmitters
  • Absolute or sealed reference options
  • Strong signal / strong full scale
  • Versions with long-term stability
  • High vibration options
  • Manufactured from corrosion-resistant titanium (6AL4V)
  • Excellent performance in corrosive media

About the MP40 Miniature Pressure Transducer

The MP40 model is a miniature pressure transducer with a flush diaphragm for general pressure measurement applications. The transducers are made of corrosion-resistant titanium (6AL4V). The inside of the flush diaphragm is fitted with high-quality semiconductor strain gauges that convert the deflection of the diaphragm into an electrical signal.

Thanks to the hermetically sealed reference side made of titanium, the MP40 series transducers can also be supplied for absolute pressure and reference pressure (enclosed) as an option. The hermetically sealed head section of this option is located directly behind the strain gauge diaphragm area of the sensor. By sealing the sensitive strain gauges, a considerable improvement and reliability of the transducer is achieved. Versions with increased long-term stability and for high vibration resistance, but also with integrated electronics (4 ... 20 mA) are optionally available (for technical data, see separate data sheet MP402).
