Honeywell’s TBF series force sensors are small, flush-diaphragm pressure sensors designed for customers who require a simple device for applications where media compatibility and low trapped volume are important. The TBF series has a precisely controlled diaphragm height, making these products useful in applications where force is applied by a flexible membrane to the sensor, such as infusion pumps. The sensor is internally unamplified, providing infinite resolution and allowing customers to do their own amplification in order to make use of the maximum resolution of the bare sensor output, leveraging any algorithm needed for the application. The sensor is internally temperature compensated and calibrated.
