SDP1000 Product Summary
The SDP1000 differential pressure sensors for air cover
the following measurement ranges: 5 to 125 Pa (0.5
inch H
2
O), and -20 to 500 Pa (2 inch H
2
O).
Mounted in a rugged, chemically inert PPS housing the
SDP1000 differential pressure sensors feature a unique
dynamic range, zero offset and unsurpassed long term
stability. This makes it an ideal fit for demanding yet cost
sensitive OEM applications in HVAC and medical
equipment.
The devices are supplied with 5.0 V and provide a
0.25…4.0 V output. Although the output of the SDP1000
differential pressure sensor is analog, the internal
linearization and temperature compensation is
performed digitally. This results in a superior accuracy,
outstanding resolution, and lowest temperature
dependence.
Since fully exchangeable just a few external electronic
components around the SDP1000 make a high quality
differential sensor transmitter with e.g. an 0...10 V output
or other interfaces.
Its leading performance is based on Sensirion’s
proprietary CMOSens
®
sensor technology which
combines the sensor element with amplification and A/D
conversion on one single silicon chip. The differential
pressure is measured by a thermal sensor element. In
contrast to other thermal differential pressure sensors
only a very small amount of air is required. This leads to
a reliable operation even under harsh conditions. In
comparison to membrane based sensors the SDP1000
differential pressure sensors show an extended
measurement range, better offset stability and improved
reproducibility even at lowest pressure ranges. In
addition, the SDP1000 is robust against pressure bursts
and shows no sensitivity to the mounting orientation.
