Advantages of SI-3151 Capacitive Pressure Transmitter
Capacitive pressure sensors measure pressure using changes in the capacitance of a capacitor. They offer high accuracy, high sensitivity, low power consumption, excellent linearity, and a wide measurement range.
- High Accuracy: Capacitive sensors provide very precise pressure measurements. An accuracy of 0.5% FS meets most pressure measurement needs.
- High Sensitivity: They are extremely sensitive to pressure changes and can detect even small changes.
- Low Power: Capacitive sensors typically require very little power to operate.
- Excellent Linearity: The output signal shows a very good linear relationship with pressure changes.
- Wide Range: They can accurately measure pressure from 25 Pa to 70 MPa with extremely high stability.
- Strong Environmental Adaptability: They can operate stably in a wide range of environmental conditions, including high and low temperatures, humidity, and corrosive environments.
- High Output Signal: The pressure transmitter’s circuitry converts small changes in capacitance directly into a high output signal without the need for signal amplification.

absolute pressure transmitter working principle
Pressure (gauge pressure)/absolute pressure transmitter is a pressure signal measured with atmospheric pressure/vacuum as the reference terminal, and only one port is connected to the process pipeline.
The working principle of metal capacitive pressure (gauge pressure)/absolute pressure transmitter is:
When the pressure acts indirectly on the surface of the metal measuring diaphragm (elastic measuring element) of different thickness through the isolation diaphragm and the pressure guide medium. Make the diaphragm slightly deformed. The maximum deformation does not exceed 0.1mm. A high-precision measurement circuit converts this tiny deformation into a voltage signal that is linear with the differential pressure signal. After linearization, temperature compensation. Then use a dedicated chip to convert this voltage signal into an industry standard 4-20mA current signal or 1-5V voltage signal.
The working principle of capacitive pressure transmitter and capacitive absolute pressure transmitter is the same as that of differential pressure transmitter, the difference is that the pressure of low pressure chamber is atmospheric pressure or vacuum.
