DATA SHEETJ Series
The J Series is ideal for high-volume, low-pressure applications.
COMPANY: Merit Sensor is a leader in piezoresistive
pressure sensing and partners with clients to create highperforming solutions for a variety of applications and industries.

SENTIUM: Merit Sensor products incorporate a proprietary
Sentium® technology, developed to provide a best-in-classoperating temperature range (-40°C to 150°C) and superior stability.

TECHNOLOGY: Merit Sensor utilizes a piezoresistive
Wheatstone bridge in a design that anodically bonds glass
to a chemically etched silicon diaphragm. All products
are RoHS compliant.
