The PPS02T Titanium Pressure Sensor is a compact, media-isolated pressure sensing element designed for high-accuracy measurement in harsh, corrosive, and space-constrained OEM applications. Built with titanium construction and a 12 mm form factor, the PPS02T provides reliable pressure sensing where corrosion resistance, material compatibility, and long-term stability are critical.
The PPS02T uses a piezoresistive MEMS sensing element isolated by high-purity silicone oil inside a titanium housing. This media-isolated design helps protect the sensing element from aggressive fluids and gases while maintaining excellent repeatability, low hysteresis, and stable pressure measurement across a wide operating temperature range.
Titanium Pressure Sensor for OEM Integration
The PPS02T is designed for OEMs that need a small, rugged titanium pressure sensor that can be integrated directly into a system, manifold, valve assembly, instrument, or custom pressure port. Its titanium housing and diaphragm provide strong corrosion resistance, biocompatibility, and strength-to-weight performance, making it a strong option for demanding applications where stainless steel may not be the best material choice.
Standard pressure ranges are available in sealed gauge configuration, with custom pressure ranges available for OEM customers. The PPS02T can be supplied as a standalone sensor element with an O-ring face seal or configured with common pressure ports including 1/4”-18 NPT, 1/8”-27 NPT, 7/16”-20 UNF, 9/16”-18 UNF AN, 1/4” BSPP, or a custom port configuration.

Why Choose a Titanium Pressure Sensor?
A titanium pressure sensor is often selected when the application requires stronger corrosion resistance, lower weight, or improved material compatibility compared to standard sensor materials. The PPS02T is especially useful in applications involving saltwater, hydraulic fluids, refrigerants, and aggressive media that are not reactive with titanium.
Titanium also offers excellent strength-to-weight performance, making it valuable in aerospace, marine, medical, and compact industrial systems where both durability and weight matter. For applications where material compatibility is critical, engineers should review the process media, temperature exposure, pressure range, sealing method, and installation environment before selecting the final sensor configuration.
Additional information about pressure calibration standards is available from NIST pressure and vacuum calibration resources, and general titanium material information is available from MatWeb titanium material data.
Media Compatibility and Titanium Wetted Parts
The PPS02T titanium pressure sensor is compatible with many liquids and gases, including hydraulic fluids, refrigerants, saltwater, and other corrosive or aggressive media that are not reactive with titanium. All wetted components are constructed of titanium and sealed with fluorine rubber, while the internal fill uses high-purity silicone oil for thermal stability and media isolation.
This construction makes the PPS02T a strong candidate for OEM applications where the sensing element must survive repeated exposure to demanding media while maintaining stable electrical output and mechanical reliability.
Titanium Pressure Sensor Applications
The PPS02T Titanium Pressure Sensor is suitable for OEM systems where the sensor must withstand demanding media, compact mechanical packaging, and long-term operating conditions. Its titanium construction and media-isolated design make it a strong fit for hydraulic, refrigeration, industrial, marine, medical, aerospace, and instrumentation applications.

Pressure Port and Configuration Options
The PPS02T can be ordered as a sensor-only element or configured with standard and custom pressure connections. Available port options include sensor-only, 1/4” NPT, 1/8” NPT, 7/16” UNF, 9/16” UNF AN, 1/4” BSPP, and custom configurations. This flexibility allows OEM customers to match the PPS02T to their mechanical assembly, pressure interface, sealing method, and installation requirements.
Temperature compensation options include uncompensated and compensated versions depending on the application requirements. Phoenix Sensors can help review your pressure range, media, temperature exposure, port requirements, output needs, and production requirements to determine the best configuration for your system.
PPS02T Electrical Connections
The PPS02T uses a six-pin electrical connection layout for bridge excitation and output signal. Pin functions include negative input, positive output, no connection, positive input, negative output, and negative input. For system integration, Phoenix Sensors recommends reviewing the datasheet and confirming wiring, excitation method, and signal conditioning requirements before installation.
