DESCRIPTION
The 86BC is a 16mm small profile, media compatible, piezoresistive silicon pressure sensor packaged in a 316L
stainless steel housing. The 86BC is designed with o-ring mounting for easy integration into industrial
applications.
The 86BC is a low cost unit designed without a header for applications where compatibility with corrosive media
is required. The sensing package utilizes silicon oil to transfer pressure from the 316L stainless steel diaphragm
to the sensing element. A ceramic substrate is attached to the package that contains laser-trimmed resistors for
temperature compensation and offset correction. An additional laser trimmed resistor is included which can be
used to adjust an external differential amplifier and provide span interchangeability to within ±1%.
Please refer to the 86 uncompensated and constant voltage datasheets for more information on different
features of the 86.

Notes
1. For amplified output circuits, 3.012V ±1% interchangeability with gain set resistor. See application schematic.
2. Measured at vacuum for absolute (A), ambient for gage (G).
3. Best fit straight line.
4. Over the compensated temperature range with respect to 25°C.
5. Guarantees output/input ratiometricity.
6. Load resistance to reduce measurement errors due to output loading.
7. Between case and sensing element.
8. 2X or 500psi, whichever is less. The maximum pressure that can be applied without changing the transducer’s performance or accuracy.
9. 3X or 600psi, whichever is less. The maximum pressure that can be applied to a transducer without rupture of either the sensing
element or transducer.
10. Maximum temperature range for product with standard cable and connector is -20°C to +105°C.
Additional Notes
11. Direct mechanical contact with diaphragm is prohibited. Diaphragm surface must remain free of defects (scratches, punctures, dents,
fingerprints, etc.) for device to operate properly. Caution is advised when handling parts with exposed diaphragms. Use protective cap
whenever devices are not in use.
12. Standard gage units are not recommended for vacuum applications.
