Pressure - OEM custom sensors

Pressure Measurement

Pressure measurement is vital for monitoring gases and liquids across a wide range of applications—from process automation and fluid dynamics to automotive, aerospace, and medical systems.

With custom-designed pressure sensors for OEM integration, you get compact, efficient, and precise solutions tailored to your product’s architecture.

Strain gauge pressure sensors work by measuring diaphragm deformation under pressure. This method offers high accuracy, robust performance, and adaptability across pressure ranges.

MEMS pressure sensors (Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems) use miniaturized structures on silicon chips. As pressure is applied, these structures deform, producing an electrical signal. MEMS technology offers low power consumption, high sensitivity, and a compact footprint—ideal for portable and embedded applications.

Choosing the right pressure sensor involves evaluating the type of pressure (absolute, gauge, or differential), measurement range, fluid compatibility, and operating conditions. With a custom approach, pressure becomes a reliable metric for performance and control in complex OEM systems.
