MKS 902-1112 Piezo Transducer – Series 902 Absolute Vacuum Sensor with RS485 Communication

MKS 902-1112 Piezo Transducer – Series 902 Absolute Vacuum Sensor with RS485 Communication

 

Product Overview

The MKS 902-1112 is a Series 902 absolute piezo transducer from MKS Instruments, designed for precise, gas-independent vacuum pressure measurement in demanding industrial and scientific applications. The MKS 902-1112 integrates a MEMS-based piezo resistive sensor with advanced electronics in a compact, single-unit package, delivering fast, accurate, and repeatable pressure readings that shorten process cycles and improve system throughput. As part of the widely deployed 902 Series, the MKS 902-1112 serves as an economical yet high-performance solution for absolute pressure measurement across a 1 to 1,000 Torr full-scale range.

The MKS 902-1112 employs a silicon piezo resistive sensor that measures absolute vacuum pressure with an accuracy of less than 1% of reading, while remaining completely independent of gas type—a critical advantage in processes where gas composition varies or is unknown. The transducer features a robust stainless steel construction with an NW 16 KF connection, making it suitable for direct integration into vacuum systems without additional adaptation. The MKS 902-1112 supports multiple communication and output options including RS485 and RS232 digital interfaces alongside analog output, enabling flexible integration with controllers, PLCs, and data acquisition systems.

The MKS 902-1112 belongs to the Series 902 transducer line, a platform recognized for combining MEMS piezo sensor technology with integrated electronics to reduce space requirements and simplify installation. With an operating temperature range suitable for industrial environments and a compact form factor measuring approximately 4 × 4 × 6.3 cm and weighing just 0.1 kg, the MKS 902-1112 delivers reliable performance in space-constrained systems while maintaining the durability required for semiconductor manufacturing, thin film coatings, freeze-drying, analytical instruments, medical devices, and aerospace applications.
