FEATURES
Dry & Wet Media Superior Long Term Stability Excellent Repeatability/Hysteresis EMI/RFI Protection Low Power Consumption Linear Amplified Output Temperature Compensated Over Wide Range Over-voltage, Reverse Polarity & Short Circuit Protection Many OEM Options 10 Year Minimum Shelf Life Sensor Lifetime in Millions of Cycles Outstanding Shock & Vibration Tolerance Made in U.S.A.
APPLICATIONS
The Model P155 pressure transducer is specifically designed for pressure measurements 0-15 through 0-1000 PSI. The stainless steel housing and ceramic diaphragm withstand exposure to compatible liquid and gaseous media. Excited by 5 Vdc, the P155 provides a 0.5 through 4.5 Vdc linear signal output proportional to pressure. Typical applications include steam sterilizers, laboratory test apparatus, marine, agricultural chemical equipment, refrigeration and HVAC systems, hydraulic systems, gas tank pressure monitoring, level measurement, test equipment, pressure measurement of aggressive fluids, injection molding, atmospheric pressure, spraying equipment, printing pressures, coolant pressures, weighing equipment and off-shore drilling rigs.
OPERATION
Key to the high performance of the P155 pressure transducer is Kavlicos ceramic, variable capacitance sensing element with ASIC and hybrid circuit for reliable signal conditioning and maximum electronic integration. This same technology is successfully used by Kavlico for automotive, diesel engine, medical and HVAC applications. Millions of Kavlico sensors are in use worldwide.
QUALITY
Kavlicos sophisticated manufacturing practices have earned the highest quality awards from its customers. As an ISO 9001 registered company, Kavlico is committed to total customer satisfaction. Each and every pressure sensor is tested for conformance to its applicable specifications prior to shipment.
OEM DESIGNS
The design of application specific sensors to meet demanding OEM requirements is Kavlicos primary function. Using the broadest range of sensing technologies, we provide components with greater EMI and over-voltage protection. Solid state switching functions and voltage regulators can be built into Kavlico sensors for use with unregulated power.

INSTALLATION
The case of this device is not connected to the ground lead. Three lead wires Red (Supply Voltage), Black (Ground), Green (Output) provide electrical connection to power and instrumentation. Teflon tape or suitable sealant may be used on NPT pressure fittings in suitable amounts so as not to interfere with a good ground connection to chassis.
