The part number **10PV-7A0-R** typically refers to a specialized electronic component, often associated with high-precision **Pressure Sensors** or **Transducer** modules used in industrial or medical applications. --- ### 1. Component Overview This specific series is known for its compact form factor and high sensitivity. It is designed to convert physical pressure into a measurable electrical signal (analog or digital). ### 2. Technical Specifications While exact specifications can vary by manufacturer (often associated with brands like *Copal Electronics* or *Nidec*), the general parameters for this class of device include: | Feature | Description | | :--- | :--- | | **Component Type** | Pressure Sensor / Transducer | | **Pressure Range** | Typically 0 to 1.0 MPa (Check specific datasheet) | | **Output Type** | Analog Voltage or Bridge Output | | **Supply Voltage** | Usually 5V to 12V DC | | **Mounting Style** | Through-Hole or Surface Mount | | **Compliance** | RoHS Compliant (indicated by the "-R" suffix) | --- ### 3. Key Internal Features * **Piezoresistive Element:** Uses a silicon micromachined sensing element. When pressure is applied, the resistance changes (Piezo effect). * **Temperature Compensation:** Many "PV" series models include internal resistors to compensate for thermal drift, ensuring accuracy across different environments. * **Small Footprint:** Designed for PCB integration where space is at a premium. ### 4. Typical Applications 1. **Industrial Automation:** Monitoring air pressure in pneumatic lines. 2. **Medical Equipment:** Used in respirators or blood pressure monitoring systems. 3. **Instrumentation:** Precision leak testers and handheld pressure gauges. --- ### 5. Part Number Breakdown (General Pattern) * **10:** Often indicates the pressure rating or series identifier. * **PV:** Pressure Vacuum (or specific series code). * **7A0:** Designates the specific configuration, port orientation, or electrical interface. * **-R:** Generally signifies **RoHS Compliance** (Restriction of Hazardous Substances).
