Digital Pressure Sensor
Has anyone found a pressure sensor that is able to interface with the cRio? We want our program to be able to know the exact (+/- 5psi) pressure, rather than the 1/0 output 120 Psi pressure switch.
Thanks, Nick Mentor Team 1212, 2449 |

Re: Digital Pressure Sensor
Try this one Omega has several other sensors available. You want one that put out a DC voltage that is proportional to the pressure.
Good luck. /edit/ By the way, what you want is an ANALOG transducer, not digital. you hook the DC output to an input on the analog module. You can then calibrate the sensor to whatever range you want. Hope this helps. Last edited by martin417 : 22-01-2009 at 18:15. |

Also, none of those can go to 120 PSI and only 1 can go above 60 PSI Last edited by Daniel_LaFleur : 22-01-2009 at 18:20. |

I am guessing he is interested in pressure he can use, and since you can't use pressure over 60 PSI, there is no need for anything more. This is an inexpensive solution to his problem. Omega offers others, but they are more expensive. |

Re: Digital Pressure Sensor
Nick, I can get you a sensor that will measure to 250 psi (gauge), 99% or 99.5% accurate (I forget -- I'll have to check tomorrow), has a 1/4" NPT fitting and is powered by 5V. PM me if interested.
Cheers, -Neil. |

Re: Digital Pressure Sensor
I'm interested... Who makes this wonderful device? Part number? Price?

Re: Digital Pressure Sensor
Actually, 125PSI is the required min rated pressure (not 150PSI).
