Since 1972, Druck has manufactured precision
pressure sensors with a capability to meet critical
applications in industrial, aerospace, oil and gas,
and research environments. Today, Druck is
part of GE Oil & Gas and has continually worked
to develop and improve on the performance of
our pressure sensors to meet our customers’
requirements.
The RPS/DPS 8000 is the rst product to
incorporate the exciting new TERPS technology.
TERPS is a resonant silicon pressure sensor
technology platform that provides an order of
magnitude greater accuracy and stability than
current pressure measurement technologies
available. The new TERPS technology also extends
the pressure range capability to high pressures
and, by incorporating true pressure media
isolation, greatly improves its suitability for use in
harsh environments.
Features:
• High Precision, ±0.01% FS over compensated
temperature range
• High Stability, ±100 ppm FS/year
• Wide temperature range, up to -40°C to +125°C
(-40° to 257°F)
In addition to providing the performance and
packaging improvements available with TERPS,
the RPS/DPS 8000 product line takes advantage
of best practices to oer a wide range of pressure
and electrical connections to enable a level of
customization for your specic requirements never
before available in the performance class of this
sensor.
The combination of the power of the TERPS
technology and the quality, reliability and exibility
of the RPS/DPS 8000 Series oers a truly unique
solution for high accuracy and high stability
pressure measurement requirements.
• Media isolated construction, suitable for use in
harsh environments
• Multiple Output congurations, RS-232, RS-485,
USB 2.0, CAN Bus, Frequency & Diode (TTL)
• Wide selection of pressure & electrical
connections to suit specic requirements
Specications
Measurement
Base Pressure Ranges
• 0 to 2 bar (0 to 30 psi) absolute
• 0 to 7 bar (0 to 100 psi) absolute
• 0 to 14 bar (0 to 200 psi) absolute
• 0 to 20 bar (0 to 300 psi) absolute
• 0 to 35 bar (0 to 500 psi) absolute
• 0 to 70 bar (0 to 1000 psi) absolute
Note: Values in psi are approximate.
The base range selected is the next range up from
the requested calibrated range.Units are converted to
bar for selection; e.g., 30 psi = 2.07 bar. A 7 bar base
pressure range will be selected.
Calibrated Ranges
Any zero-based range between 1 and 70 bar (14.5 to
1000 psi) can be specied. (Performance will be of the
full scale of the base pressure range selected.)
Barometric ranges are available in the RPS/DPS 8100
series. The lowest calibrated pressure is 35 mbar
absolute.
