Model 96 UltraStable 316L SS Pressure Sensor High Performance 0-100 mV Output Absolute and Gage Low Pressure Hydraulic Controls Process Control Oceanography Refrigeration/Compressors Pressure Transmitters Level Systems DESCRIPTION The Model 96 is a small profile, media compatible, piezoresistive silicon pressure sensor packaged in a 316L stainless steel housing. The Model 96 is available with a standard ¼ NPT fitting. The sensing package utilizes silicone oil to transfer pressure from the 316L stainless steel diaphragm to the sensing element. The Model 96 is designed for high performance, low pressure applications. A ceramic substrate is attached to the package that contains laser-trimmed resistors for temperature compensation and offset correction. An additional lasertrimmed resistor is included which can be used to adjust an external differential amplifier and provide span interchangeability to within ±1%. Sensors with O-ring fittings, and high pressure sensors are FEATURES also available. Please contact factory for more information. 1/4 NPT Thread, 5/8" Hex –20°C to +85°C Compensated Temperature Range ±0.1% Pressure Non-linearity ±1.0% Interchangeable Span (provided by gain set resistor) Solid State Reliability Low Power DIMENSIONS STANDARD RANGES Range 1-74 psig psia 0 to 15 ● ● 0 to 30 ● ● 0 to 50 ● ● 0 to 100 ● ● 0 to 300 ● ● 0 to 500 ● ● ISO – Wide Temperature Range Model 96 UltraStable 316L SS Pressure Sensor PERFORMANCE SPECIFICATIONS All parameters specified at 1.5mA and at 25°C, after 10 second warm up, unless otherwise indicated.

For amplified output circuits see application note TN-003. 7. 2. Measured at vacuum for absolute (A), ambient for gage (G). 8. Between case and sensing element. 3. Best fit straight line. 9. Maximum temperature range for product with standard cable and connector is –20°C to +105°C. 4. Over the temperature range –20°C to +85°C with respect to +25°C. 5. 15 psi range sensors have an offset temperature error of ±0.75% (Max) from –20°C to +85°C. 6. Guarantees output/input ratiometricity. ORDERING INFORMATION Load resistance to reduce measurement errors due to output loading. 10. Weight depends upon configuration (cable, connector, pressure fitting). 11. For gage units used at pressures below atmosphere, the span accuracy is not guaranteed.
