2. Introduction
The Valeport miniIPS “Intelligent Pressure Sensor” is designed to measure water pressure and provide a real time
output of that data. Suitable for use in a variety of subsea applications (ROV’s, construction, monitoring,
positioning), one of the key development drivers was to provide a cost effective alternative to the use of resonant
quartz pressure sensors. Using the very latest technology in temperature compensated piezo-resistive transducers,
the miniIPS offers several advantages over resonant quartz sensors, with similar performance.
· No external diaphragms, oil reservoir or oil-filled tubes
· Easy to clean – no salt build up
· Titanium construction
· Pressure ranges from 10 to 600Bar (approx 100m to 6000m water)
· Long term calibration stability
· May be recalibrated by customers using standard Class A deadweight tester (requires optional adapter)
· RS232 or addressable RS485 data output
· Choice of calibrated data formats
· Choice of sampling modes
