Why pressure sensors are designed with stainless steel?

XIDIBEI has many types of materials used to design pressure sensors. In various applications, stainless steel is the most reliable and durable one. The piezoresistive pressure sensor is made of stainless steel without O-ring seal.

There are 4 advantages of stainless steel:

1. High tensile strength

In hydraulic applications, the pressure overload is relatively large, and the stainless steel pressure sensor can withstand high pressure cycles without operation damage.

2. Strong durability and hardness

High reliability and durability in harsh environment need to withstand extreme shock, vibration and temperature. All stainless steel design is very suitable for application in these high toughness requirements.

3. Corrosion resistance

For most liquids and gases, stainless steel provides excellent protection against short and long term corrosion due to the formation of a self-propagation process on the natural surface. Welding seal provides an application of pressure and vacuum measurement with high pressure seal integrity in many all-welded mechanical assemblies with pressure and temperature cycles.

4. Cleanlinessand high purity

In the food, beverage and pharmaceutical industries, stainless steel is the preferred material because its highly polished surface is easy to clean and prevent bacterial growth during use. Another advantage is that all mechanical parts exposed on the surface can be welded together from one material, so there is no gap to attract residual pollutants or processes from the media.
