HIGH TEMPERATURE, HARSH MEDIA PRESSURE SENSOR
Bourns® Model BPS130
NEW PRODUCT BRIEF
Bourns® Precision Sensor (BPS) pressure sensors
are designed for demanding applications in the
Industrial, Medical* and Consumer markets.
Quality, performance and reliability are the core
values of this family of environmental sensors.
BPS pressure sensors are based on innovative
MEMS technology which provides extremely
accurate condition readings in a miniature
package size. The sensing element is comprised
of embedded piezoresistive elements bonded
to a chemically etched silicon diaphragm. As with
other Sensors & Controls products, our BPS
models can be modied to t the customer’s
specic application. Ask our FAEs for information
regarding customization.
Sensors have become the most critical
component of information collection.
Features such as self-diagnostics, network
compatibility, small form factor and
self-calibration are considered essential.
“Real-time” data analytics are driving the
evolution of sensors and sensor networks.
Dependable sensors for every type of
pressure and environment compatible
with high temperatures are used in
applications across multiple
market segments.
These products are best suited for applications
where precision is essential and customers
understand the value proposition of the
product in the following market segments:
