Mass pressure sensors

Our melt pressure sensors are characterized in particular by increased service life, high material quality, precise measuring behavior and a food-safe transmission medium. The melt pressure sensors are made entirely of stainless steel, and the use of a special and innovative diaphragm means that the known errors of diaphragm rupture during fusion shrinkage are a thing of the past. A special coating protects the diaphragm against sticky and abrasive substances. The result of selected materials, a special manufacturing process and the high-precision electronic unit ensures a stable measuring process without the known interference of temperature drift, such as with the NaK filling medium. By dispensing with environmentally harmful materials, our Sensors can also be used for food and pharmaceutical applications (FDA-compliant).
