ME506
Metallux
ME506 pressure sensors are made with a ceramic base cell and a flush diaphragm
and work following the piezoresistive principle. The Wheatstone bridge is
screen printed on one side of the flush ceramic diaphragm which is, in turn,
glued to the sensor’s body, the bridge faces the inside where a cavity is made
and the diaphragm’s opposite side can therefore be exposed directly to the
medium to be measured. Because of the Al2O3 ceramic excellent chemical
resistance (aggressive gases, most of solvents and acids, etc.), no additional
protection is normally required. Metallux ME506 pressure sensor main feature is
the reduced diameter (15 mm). Metallux ME506 sensors are thermally compensated
by laser adjustable PTC resistors and the use of ceramic ensures a high
linearity across the entire range of measurement, reducing effects of
hysteresis to a minimum.
