Superior Sensor Technology ND015D

The ND medium-pressure series is based on Superior's NimbleSense architecture, supporting operating temperatures from -20°C to 85°C and capable of withstanding pressures up to 150 psi (10.3 Bar). In addition, the ND series employs the company's proprietary Multi-Range technology, delivering the industry's widest dynamic range. This expanded dynamic range provides multiple pressure ranges within a single package, reducing the number of sensor variants required to meet the demanding functional requirements of different industrial market segments. For example, a single Multi-Range-enabled ND sensor can replace up to 7 competitive products, significantly simplifying installation requirements and substantially reducing inventory costs.

The ND medium-pressure series supports pressure ranges from as low as 5 psi to as high as 150 psi, serving a wide variety of industrial applications ranging from air curtains to environmental test chambers, ophthalmic surgical equipment, drones, and 3D printing.

The ND medium-pressure series measures dry air and non-corrosive gas pressure with very high accuracy and stable zero-point performance, featuring industry-leading nonlinearity — typically 0.01% FSS. The ND medium-pressure series offers selectable bandwidth filters from 1 Hz to 200 Hz and 16-bit resolution. To enhance performance, the ND series integrates 50/60 Hz notch filters to minimize the impact of power supply noise spikes. The ND series is an ideal choice for applications demanding extremely high reliability.

The ND series delivers 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 capabilities that streamline system development, improve manufacturing convenience, and enhance reliability.

The ND series features a high-reliability plastic housing that provides 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.
