EFE - Model PCM160 -Miniature Pressure & Temperature Sensor

The PCM160 series sensors allow simultaneous measurement of pressure and temperature at a single point. Their all-metal, stainless steel construction makes them compatible with most of fluids used in industry. Their size, weight and robustness allow them to be integrated in all applications, especially embedded on vehicles, aircraft, missiles, satellites... Equipped with EFE thin film technology associated with a platinum probe, operating independently of each other, the PCM160 sensors deliver an amplified or unamplified signal for pressure, while the temperature measurement comes directly from the PT1000 or PT100 probe. Available with ranges covering -1 to 500bar, they are compatible with extreme temperatures from -55 to +175°C. The PCM160 series is available in 3 models: the PCM161 has a non-amplified signal for pressure (mV/V), the PCM163 is ratiometric (5Vdc power supply, 0.5-4.5Vdc pressure signal) and the PCM167 delivers a 0.5-4.5Vdc voltage for pressure measurement with an unregulated power supply of 8 to 16Vdc.
