Pressure Sensors Frequently Asked Questions
Question
What is the resolution of the ProSense pressure transmitters?
Answer
For the PTD25 pressure transmitters, they have an 11 bit resolution. If you divide the total range of the transmitter by 2048 this will show what pressure change is required to see a corresponding change in the analog output. For example, for the 0-100PSI transducer, 100 / 2048 = 0.05, so the transducer will change its output for every 0.05PSI pressure change.The SPT pressure sensors are an analog type and don't use a DAC converter.
