PHE160 Miniature Pressure Sensor

PHE160 is designed to operate in the harshest environments, including wide operating temperature, mechanical shocks and vibrations. It is well adapted to embedded measurements, on vehicles, aircrafts, satellites, robots or missiles. With pressure ranges available from -1 up to 250 bar, absolute or gage, its all stainless steel construction makes it usable with most fluids used in industry, even corrosive ones. The PHE160 is manufactured with the rugged and EFE proprietary sensitive elements. Its manufacturing process, including traceable controls and special burn-in, gives the best insurance of high performance and stability in the most challenging applications. Its small package and low mass make it very adapted to application where space is at a premium.

EFE products are designed to withstand the harshest environments. Supplying pressure sensors for on-board applications for over 35 years has made them aware of the constraints of such environments on sensors, especially miniature.
EFE’s robust technology, associated with proven high quality electronics have been successfully used on board applications in automotive, motor sport, military and aerospace applications.

Harsh environment sensors consist often in applications combining high levels of shocks, vibrations, accelerations and temperature.

Nevertheless unsuitable sensors can also be damaged by corrosive fluids, radiations (nuclear), pressure pulsations or spikes.

In all these cases EFE offers dedicated proven solutions. EFE’s thin film technology has many advantages, being 100% metallic, capable of high numbers of pressure cycles and adapted to gamma radiation environments.
EFE manufacturing process, with adapted burn-in and high numbers of quality controls applied at 100% of their production, as well as the choice of high quality components, is a guarantee of the reliability of their sensors in your application.

Applications : on-board vehicle, flight test, missile, nuclear applications, satellite,etc.
