SGX Sensortech VQ548MP MEMS Pellistor Series

SGX Sensortech – VQ548MP
MEMS Pellistor Series

CDI introduces SGX Sensortech MEMS Pellistor Series VQ548MP. The VQ548MP is commonly, but not exclusively, used in industrial safety applications. It is a low power, extremely robust and poison resistant device in a certified flameproof enclosure.

The VQ548MP has been designed to provide enhanced sensor performance that will enable a suitable instrument to meet the various combustible gas performance standards.

The VQ548MP, whilst being optimized for its methane response (up to 5% volume in air), will also detect other flammable gases and vapors. (For further information please contact Component Distributors Inc.)

VQ548MP Notable Features:

This device requires ½ the power than most pellistors
The MEMS device allows a pulsed power supply – extending battery life for portable/battery operated devices
Due to the MEMS design the device is more robust in terms of shock and vibration

Low power (continuous operation typically 110mW)
Highly poison resistant to HMDS and H2S
VQ500 package compatible with the existing sensors
Highly resistant to mechanical shock
Extremely fast stabilization in very low power mode pulsed operation (10-20mW)
Low orientation effect
ATEX; Ex certification – pending
