PM6 Series miniature pressure sensor

Miniature stainless steel pressure sensor for static and dynamic pressure measurements. Designed for corrosive or conducting fluids, with ranges from 20 to 1000 bar.


Key features

  • Pressure ranges from 20 to 1000 bar
  • Static and dynamic pressure measurement
  • Stainless steel construction
  • For corrosive or conducting fluids
  • mV or amplified output
  • Operating temperature up to +150°C

Performance highlights

The PM6 Series miniature pressure sensor is designed for static and dynamic pressure measurements in corrosive environments. The sensor is made entirely from stainless steel. Its recessed membrane design makes it compatible with many corrosive or conducting fluids.

Usage conditions

The sensor is available with gauge or sealed pressure reference. It can be supplied with an unamplified mV output or with integrated electronics for an analogue voltage signal. The non-amplified version operates from -40°C to +150°C. The amplified version operates up to +125°C.

Possible applications

  • Dynamic pressure testing
  • High pressure measurement
  • Corrosive fluid monitoring
  • Conductive fluid pressure measurement
  • Compact OEM systems
  • Test bench pressure measurement

Advantages of choosing this product

The PM6 Series miniature pressure sensor combines a compact M6 design with high pressure capability. It supports pressure ranges up to 1000 bar. The stainless steel construction and welded body and membrane support use in demanding fluid environments.

Other important features
