to 12 VDC, the output voltage increased NOTE: 241PC sensors are scaled for greater pressure on the P1 side of the chip. 242PC sensors
by 50% to 1.5-9 volts (7.5 V Span). are scaled for greater pressure on the P2 side of the chip.
Other scalings available upon request.

NULL AND SENSITIVITY
TEMPERATURE SHIFT Null and Sensitivity Shift (% Span)
Amplified pressure sensors are 100%
tested to ensure that the maximum null
and sensitivity temperature shift does not
exceed the specification. The diagram il-
lustrates how null and sensitivity shift re-
lates to temperature. Note that the maxi-
mum shift occurs at temperature ex-
tremes. Therefore, if a sensor is not ex-
posed to the entire temperature range,
the maximum null and sensitivity shift will
actually be less than the value specified.
NOTES
1. Terminals are labeled on the sensor.
2. Input and output share a common
ground.
3. RL must be greater than or equal to
3000 ohms.
