> Measuring principle The Bronkhorst® IN-PRESS pressure sensor is a piezoresistive bridge on the surface of a silicon chip. This chip is drilled out on its reverse side, giving the inside of the chip the form of a pressure diaphragm, whose thickness determines the pressure range. When a pressure acts on this chip, the diaphragm flexes, and the resistor values of the bridge alter in proportion to the pressure. The measuring cell is separated from the external pressure by a thin, sensitive stainless steel diaphragm, and the sealed off cavity between diaphragm and cell is filled with oil. > Configurations...

Examples of some applications It is of course impossible to picture the possible number of applications. Here is a limited quantity of basic examples, which are often seen with some variations. However, identical or similar configurations are used in totally different applications. Therefore please consider the ones pictured here as examples for solving common applications. Pressure control with adjustable flow Back pressure control independent of gas mix and total flow Process Chamber (reactor) Electronic Back Pressure Controller Electronic Pressure Meter Reactor The control valve of the IN-FLOW...

> Principle of operation The Process Pressure Controller consists of a piezo-resistive pressure sensor and two direct acting, solenoid control valves. The instrument has a gas inlet for pressurisation, a pressure relief outlet and a system outlet. While pressurizing the system - this will normally be a static volume -the pressure sensor and the inlet valve operate as a forward pressure controller and the relief valve remains shut. When the system requires depressurisation, the inlet valve is shut and the pressure sensor in combination with the relief valve will act as back pressure controller....
