Datasheet

An industrial pressure transducer has been launched that offers maximum design flexibility with a variety of pressure ports and electrical configurations available for low to medium volume OEM applications. The U5300 from Measurement Specialities features superior accuracy with a total error band (TEB) of ±0.5% F.S. for demanding commercial and heavy duty applications.

It accurately measures liquid or gas pressure in difficult media, such as contaminated water, steam and mildly corrosive fluids, in high end, high accuracy applications. These include military, aerospace and automotive test stands as well as calibration equipment, stationary motor fuel control and industrial machinery.

Measurement Specialties’ UltraStable technology enables the pressure transducer to provide excellent performance and long-term stability over an extended operating temperature range of -40°C to +125°C.

Each unit’s internal circuitry is protected from reverse wiring at input and short circuit at output for added reliability.

The transducer offers accuracy of ±0.1% accuracy F.S. BFSL. Standard pressures range from 0 psi to 15 psi through 0 psi to 10,000 psi, with intermediate ranges available.

This rugged pressure transducer can withstand shock to 50 g for 11 msec half sine per MIL-STD-202G as well as vibration of ±20 g according to MIL-STD-810C.

Weatherproof, the transducer comes in gage, sealed, absolute or compound configurations, and exceeds current heavy industrial CE requirements, including surge protection. It is made of 316L stainless steel, has no O-rings or welds and no organics are exposed.
