Submersible pressure level sensors

Submersible pressure level sensors

Submersible pressure sensors are specific types of pressure sensors designed to be submerged in fluids, such as water or other liquid environments. They are widely used in industrial applications, environmental monitoring, marine and underwater research. Submersible pressure sensors are also called submersible pressure transmitters or submersible pressure transducers.

Relation to Subsea pressure sensors

Subsea pressure sensors and submersible pressure sensors are closely related, often overlapping in their functionalities and applications. The primary distinction lies in their specific use cases and design adaptations. Submersible pressure sensors are generally designed for shallow water applications, such as environmental monitoring in lakes, rivers, and coastal areas. They are typically optimized for ease of deployment and use in relatively accessible underwater environments.

Where Sub sea pressure sensors are tailored for deep-water applications, capable of enduring extreme pressure conditions found in deep seas and oceans. They are built for high durability and can operate reliably in the most demanding underwater settings. Both types of sensors share the core function of measuring pressure in aquatic environments, but sub sea pressure sensors are engineered for more extreme conditions and greater depths, making them suitable for heavy-duty marine and industrial applications.

Tips selecting your suitable submersible pressure sensor

For any sensor, it is important to consider the pressure range, accuracy, sensitivity, range and conditions. Especially for our Submersible pressure sensor category, we would like to provide the following tips to help you choose the right sensor for your project or application:

• Depth rating: Ensure the sensor is rated for the maximum depth of your application to avoid damage and ensure accurate pressure measurements.
• Material durability: Choose sensors made from corrosion-resistant materials like stainless steel or titanium, especially if used in saltwater or chemically active environments.
• Ingress protection: Look for sensors with a high IP rating (e.g., IP68) to ensure they are fully protected against water ingress.
• Cable quality: Opt for sensors with robust, waterproof cables that can withstand the harsh conditions of submerged environments.
• Temperature compensation: Select sensors with built-in temperature compensation to maintain accuracy across varying water temperatures.

Hopefully these tips will help you select the best sensor for your project or application. For further information and questions, please contact our team of technical experts, who always want to help you find the right submersible pressure sensor for your project or application.
