NRG #BP20 Barometric Pressure Sensor

The NRG #BP20 Pressure Sensor is a micromachined absolute pressure sensor which provides a high level voltage output signal that is proportional to absolute pressure. It includes built-in temperature compensation, linearization, and an output amplifier. Its low cost and rugged PVC enclosure make the BP-20 ideal for collecting absolute pressure data at remote sites
