Malema Pressure Sensors FAQ

• What is a pressure sensor?

  A pressure sensor measures the force exerted by a fluid on a surface and converts it into an electrical signal for monitoring or control.

• What are the different pressure sensor options?

  Malema offers several pressure sensor options, each engineered for reliability, clean operation and accuracy across demanding applications:

  • KL-91, KL-92 and KL-95 Pressure Sensors feature PFA and PTFE wetted parts that minimize dead volume, ensuring accurate pressure readings in ultra-pure environments. These sensors are well-suited for semiconductor wet processes, high-purity chemical delivery and any application where contamination control is essential.

  • MPT-750 Pressure Sensors combine pressure and temperature monitoring in a single device, helping reduce system complexity and footprint. Their PFA and PFKM wetted materials support aggressive and high-purity chemistries, making them a strong choice for CMP systems, cleaning stations and temperature-sensitive chemical blending.

  • MPS-450 Pressure Sensors provide stable and repeatable performance in a compact cost-effective design. These sensors are ideal for OEM equipment, space-limited installations and general industrial or semiconductor applications that require reliable pressure monitoring without added hardware complexity.

• What features should I look for in a pressure sensor?

  Key features include measurement range, accuracy, fluid compatibility, temperature tolerance, response time, integrated temperature measurement and output type.
