Pressure is the amount of force applied per unit area. Pressure can be measured by a pressure gauge, but it is important to know the type of pressure the gauge is reading. This article will cover the ...

Munich—Epson Toyocom Corp. has developed an extremely small absolute pressure sensor dubbed the XP-6000CA, which employs a QMEMS pressure-sensing structure that allows the sensor to squeeze into a ...

Tokyo, Japan — Alps Electric has developed a capacitance-type pressure sensor in a 4.8 x 4.8 x 1.8-mm footprint to detect absolute pressure. Key applications for the HSPC series sensors include ...

There are essentially four different types of pressure measurement transmitters. Absolute pressure transmitters measure against a vacuum, meaning that if no pressure is applied, the reading would ...
