Description
The ASCX Series is an signal-conditioned version of Honeywell’s
proven performer and industry leading SCX Series. The amplified
ASCX device is in the same package as the SCX but it offers a high
level output (4.5 Vdc span) on a very cost-effective basis. This
family is fully calibrated and temperature compensated over a range
of 0 °C to 70 °C [32 °F to 158 °F] but can be operated from -25 °C
to 105 °C [-13 °F to 221 °F]. They are intended for use with non-
corrosive, non-ionic working fluids such as air and dry gases.
Devices are available to measure absolute, differential and gage
pressures from 1 psi (ASCX01) up to 150 psi (ASCX150). The
absolute devices (A) have an internal vacuum reference and an
output voltage proportional to absolute pressure. Differential
devices (D) allow application of pressure to either side of the
sensing diaphragm and can be used for gage or differential pressure
measurements.
The ASCX Series devices feature an integrated circuit (IC) sensor
element and laser trimmed thick film ceramic housed in a compact
solvent resistant case. It provides excellent corrosion resistance and
isolation to external packaging stresses. The package has
convenient mounting holes and pressure ports for ease of use with
standard plastic tubing for pressure connection.
All ASCX devices are calibrated for span to within ± 1 % (typically ±

0.2 %) of FSO. The devices are characterized for operation from a
single 5 Vdc supply although sensitivity is ratiometric to the supply
voltage and any dc supply from 5 Vdc to 16 Vdc is acceptable.
The ACSX series requires very low quiescent current compared to
other signal conditioned pressure sensors, thus, this series is ideal
for battery-powered applications. The 100 µs response time makes
this series an excellent choice for computer peripherals and
pneumatic control applications.
