How Micro-Fused Pressure Sensors Work

Micro-fused pressure sensors function by integrating a silicon strain gauge with high-temperature glass directly onto a stainless steel diaphragm. This fusion process forms a single, solid sensor element that accurately converts pressure into an electrical signal with exceptional stability. By eliminating the need for oil filling, these sensors achieve a leak-proof design, making them ideal for use in corrosive or sensitive environments. Additionally, advanced temperature compensation ensures precise measurements across a broad temperature range, enabling reliable operation even in the most demanding industrial settings.
