DESCRIPTION
The 85 vacuum uncompensated pressure sensor is a small profile, media compatible, piezoresistive silicon
pressure sensor packaged in a 316L stainless steel housing. The 85 vacuum uncompensated pressure sensor
is offered in a weldable package or with a variety of threaded fittings such as 1/4 and 1/8NPT, 1/4BSP as well
as other custom process fittings.
The 85 uncompensated is designed for OEM applications where compatibility with corrosive media is required.
The sensing package utilizes silicon oil to transfer pressure from the 316L stainless steel diaphragm to the
sensing element.
Please refer to the 85 compensated and constant voltage datasheets for more information on different features
of the 85.

Notes
1. Measured at vacuum for absolute (A) and at ambient for gage (G).
2. Best fit straight line. Non linearity is ±0.2% max for 5psiG devices.
3. Pressure hysteresis is min -0.1 to max 0.1 for 5psi absolute.
4. Bridge resistance is measured with both E pins shorted together.
5. TC values are first order coefficients to a quadratic fit over a temperature range of -20 to +85°C (0 to +50°C for 5psi).
6. 5psiA is -1.7K ~ -1.0K ppm/°C.
7. Between case and sending element.
8. The maximum pressure that can be applied to a transducer without rupture of either the sensing element or transducer.
