Abstract
A sensing system that provides an isolation diaphragm through which pressure is transmitted from a process fluid to a fill fluid contained within the sensing system's body is provided. In the system, fill fluid transfers pressure to semiconductor sensors that provide signals for both the differential pressure and the static pressure, thereby allowing for signal conditioning of the differential output to compensate for the effects of static pressure. The system's body provides a cavity for fill fluid behind each of the isolation diaphragms. At least one flat plate actuation diaphragm allows controlled movement of oil as the differential pressure of the isolation diaphragm increases. Fluid volumes are managed for thermal effects, passive thermal volume change; compensation is accomplish by offsetting the large coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) of fill fluid by providing at least one insert whose coefficient of thermal expansion is smaller than the CTE of the system body.
