The HM series harsh media pressure MEMS sensing elements from Merit Sensor^TM is ideal for low and medium OEM applications, offering available pressure ranges of between 15psi and 500psi. The sensors utilise a piezoresistive Wheatstone bridge in a design that anodically bonds glass to a chemically etched silicon diaphragm. This pressure sensor series offers an operating temperature of −40°C to +150°C and a full scale output range from 75mV or 175mv (depending on the pressure range). The HM series from Merit Sensor^TM products incorporate a proprietary Sentium® technology, developed to provide a best-in-class operating temperature range and superior stability.
