Honeywell SCX Series Gauge Pressure Sensor, Wheatstone Bridge Output 0 psi, Differential Reading 5 psi

Honeywell SCX Series Gauge Pressure Sensor, ±0.1% Accuracy, 5psi Maximum Pressure Measurement - SCX05DN

This gauge pressure sensor measures small differential pressures for industrial and instrumentation applications. It is designed to translate pressure differences into an electrical signal suitable for integration with control and monitoring systems. The unit operates across a defined supply range and functions reliably over a wide ambient temperature window, making it appropriate for automated and electronic measurement environments.

Features and Benefits:

• ±0.1% accuracy provides precise measurement results 0-5psi maximum range supports low-pressure monitoring Wheatstone bridge output allows direct interfacing with signal conditioning 12-20V supply compatibility fits common industrial power rails 100μs response time enables Rapid detection of transient events Plastic housing tolerates temperatures down to -40°C

Applications

• Suitable for pneumatic control loop verification in automation systems Ideal for differential flow monitoring in process instrumentation Used for leak detection in compressed-air networks Can be used for pressure-feedback in electromechanical actuators Used with data acquisition modules for fast transient capture
