DESCRIPTION
The Model 96 is a small profile, media compatible,
piezoresistive silicon pressure sensor packaged in a 316L
sta in l ess stee l h ou sing. Th e M od el 96 is available wit h a
standard ¼ NPT fitting. The sensing package utilizes silicone oil
to transf er pressur e fr om the 316L stainless stee l dia phrag m to
the se n sing elem ent.
The Model 96 i s designed for high performance, low
pressure applications. A ceramic substr ate is attached to the
packag e that contains la ser-trimmed resistors for temperature
compensation and offset correction. An additional laser-
trimmed resistor is included which can be used to adjust an
ex te rn a l d iff e ren t ia l ampli f ie r an d p rovide sp a n
inte rchangeability to within ±1%.
Sensors with O-ring fitt ings, and high pressure sensors ar e
also available. Please contact factory for more information.

PERFORMANCE SPECIFICATIONS
All parameters specified at 1.5mA and at 25°C, after 10 second warm up, unless otherwise indicated. Unless specifically indicated, only those parameters
indicated as tested are verified on each part. Parameters are specifie d f or the compensated version only.
Notes
1. For amplified output circuits see application note TN-003.
2. Measured at vacuum for absolute (A), ambient for gage (G).
3. Best fit straight line.
4. Over the temperature range –20°C to +85°C with respect to +25°C.
5. 15 psi range sensors have an offset temperature error of ±0.75%
(Max) from –20°C to +85°C.
6. Guarantees output/input ratiometricity.
7. Load resistance to reduce measurement errors due to output loading.
8. Between case and sensing element.
9. Maximum temperature range for product with standard cable and
connector is –20°C to +105°C.
10. Weight depends upon configuration (cable, connector, pressure fitting).
11. For gage units used at pressures below atmosphere, the span accuracy
is not guaranteed.
