Pressure Sensors Transducers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix '3-L' corresponds to the required lead-free DIP8 packaging and pin configuration. Confirm that the differential pressure rating of 15 PSI aligns with system requirements. Ensure the operating environment stays within the compensated temperature range of 0°C to 60°C for optimal accuracy. Check compatibility with the 0-100mV output signal level against downstream circuitry input specifications.

Pressure Sensors Transducers Selection Notes

Select this model when a low-cost, solid-state solution is needed for differential pressure measurement up to 15 PSI. It is suitable for PCB mounting via the DIP8 package. Choose this part if temperature compensation between 0°C and 60°C is sufficient for the application. Consider the 100mV full-scale output for simple amplification circuits. Opt for this sensor over absolute or gauge types specifically for differential pressure needs.

Pressure Sensors Transducers Part Context

This component belongs to the NPC-1210 series of medium/low pressure sensors by Amphenol Advanced Sensors (NovaSensor). The series is based on micro-machined silicon technology applied to piezoresistive applications. Other variants in the series include models with different pressure ratings such as 015A, 100G, and 100D, offering flexibility in pressure range and port configuration while maintaining similar core technology and packaging options.

Pressure Sensors Transducers Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same series include NPC-1210-015D-3-S, which shares the 15 PSI differential rating but may differ in termination style or packaging specifics. Variants like NPC-1210-015A-3-L offer alternative port configurations. Verify mechanical fit and electrical output characteristics before substituting with other series members.
