The Millivolt Output pressure sensors is based upon a proprietary packaging technology to reduce output offset or
common mode errors. This model provides a calibrated millivolt output with good output offset characteristics. In
addition the sensor utilizes a silicon, micromachined, stress concentration enhanced structure to provide a very linear
output to measured pressure.
These calibrated and temperature compensated sensors give an accurate and stable output over a wide tempera-
ture range. This series is intended for use with non-corrosive, non-ionic working fluids such as air, dry gases and
the like. The C-GRADE is a lowest cost version of the millivolt output pressure sensors.
The output of the device is ratiometric to the supply voltage and operation from any D.C. supply voltage up to
+16 V is acceptable.

NOTE 3: SHIFT IS WITHIN THE FIRST HOUR OF EXCITATION APPLIED TO THE DEVICE.
NOTE 4: MEASURED AT ONE-HALF FULL SCALE RATED PRESSURE USING BEST STRAIGHT LINE CURVE FIT.
NOTE 5: THE VOLTAGE ADDED TO THE OFFSET VOLTAGE AT FULL SCALE PRESSURE.
