Superior Sensor Technology ND120-SM02-R

The ND Series, based on Superior's NimbleSense architecture, extends the operating temperature range to -20°C ~ 85°C while increasing the pressure range to 5 psi (345 mBar). Additionally, the ND Series incorporates the company's proprietary Multi-Range technology, creating the widest dynamic range in the industry. This wider dynamic range enables multiple pressure ranges within a single package, reducing the number of sensor variants required to support the demanding functional requirements of different industrial market segments. For example, a Multi-Range-enabled ND sensor can replace up to 7 competing products, greatly simplifying installation requirements and significantly reducing inventory costs.

The ND Series supports pressure ranges from as low as 0.25 inH₂O to as high as 5 psi, making it ideal for a wide variety of industrial applications ranging from air curtains to environmental test chambers, ophthalmic surgical equipment, drones, and 3D printing.

The ND Series measures dry air and non-corrosive gas pressure with exceptional accuracy and a stable zero point. Its non-linearity is also industry-leading, typically 0.05% FSS. The ND Series features selectable bandwidth filters from 1 Hz to 200 Hz and 16-bit resolution. To enhance performance, the ND Series also integrates a 50/60 Hz notch filter to minimize the impact of power supply noise spikes. The ND Series is the ideal choice for applications with extremely high reliability requirements.

The ND Series offers a new level of integration, combining advanced piezoresistive sensing elements with integrated amplifiers, ADC, DSP, and digital interfaces, greatly simplifying customer integration efforts. Advanced digital processing enables new features that streamline system development, improve manufacturing convenience, and enhance reliability.

The ND Series features a high-reliability plastic housing that delivers an ideal combination of high performance and high reliability across an extended temperature range, while ensuring customers have a high-yield, cost-effective solution optimized for a broad range of industrial needs.
