User Manual

The LPS35HW has a fraternal twin, the LPS33HW. In nearly all respects the LPS33HW is the same as the LPS35HW

however the LPS33HW has a bonus feature: a nozzle that can be used to seal it against an enclosure or perhaps a

properly fitted tube of some sort. You'll want to make sure to use an appropriately sized o-ring to ensure a good seal.

Like the LPS35HW, the LPS33HW chip inside is encased in a protective gel, however in the case of the LPS33HW, the

gel is mentioned as being

...designed for and proven to protect electronic components from long-term exposure to harsh environments such

as water mixed with chlorine, bromine, commercial washing detergent and fuels, solvents and chemicals.

Wow! That's a resilient sensor!

The LPS33W like its sibling is advertised as being protected from all kinds of horrible things however THE

BREAKOUT BOARD IS NOT. For use in icky environments, you'll want to protect the rest of the board with

appropriate measures. Since the LPS33HW has a sealable port, you may be able to use the information in the

application note on the downloads page to make a suitable enclosure
