, displacing its measuring diaphragm. The displacement changes the
resistance of the four piezoresistors (bridge circuit) of the gauge pressure sensor. The change
in the resistance causes a bridge output voltage proportional to the inlet pressure.
Pressure transmitters with measuring span ≤ 63 bar measure the inlet pressure against
atmosphere, those with measuring spans ≥ 160 bar the inlet pressure against vacuum.
