Pressure Sensors

Barometric Pressure Sensors are designed to measure atmospheric pressure in a variety of applications which specifically means the measurement of the weight exerted by air molecules at any given point on the Earth.

Differential Pressure Sensors measure the difference in pressure at two points and offers a comparative measurement between the two. Sometimes it is not essential to know the absolute pressure of a liquid or a gas. Rather, only the difference in pressure between the two pints being monitored need to be known and this is where Differential pressure sensors play a crucial role.

Absolute Pressure is that which is measured relative to vacuum as opposed to Gauge pressure that is measured against Barometric pressure. Absolute pressure sensors are used in a variety of applications, including altimeters, weather stations, food packing and more.
