Barometric Pressure Sensor (SN-SCP1000 )

[soo921]

Hi, I m new with this sensor, I need some one to guide me in using this sensor to measure the air pressure in a miniature air pressure tank. The interface it with the computer to safe the pressure log and control the sensor from the computer. For example the miniature tank is capable of holding 1 bar pressure.
All your help is appreciated.

FYI, this sensor is an absolute pressure sensor and can only measure the pressure from 30kpa to 120kpa. It is not suitable for your application because you need to measure up to 203kpa (atmosphere pressure at sea level = 103kpa).

However, to interface with this sensor, you can refer to our Project DIY Set PR22 (http://www.cytron.com.my/viewProduct.ph ... 9g=&store=)

hi waiweng83, so u mean as long as the measurement is within the range 30kpa to 120kpa then the sensor can be use. i just want to use the sensor to measure the pressure in the miniature pressure tank it does not have to be up to 203kpa. I can limit to let say 100kpa so it is in the range of the sensor.

any thank for your info. It is very helpful.
