CPC05GFC Pressure Sensor - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The CPC05GFC is a vented gauge pressure sensor manufactured by Honeywell Sensing and Productivity Solutions, designed for board mount applications requiring 5PSI (34.47kPa) pressure measurement. This sensor features a Wheatstone Bridge output with 0 mV ~ 60 mV (12V) signal range and temperature compensation across -25°C to 85°C operating range.

The CPC05GFC is classified as obsolete. Identifying equivalent and substitute parts is necessary to maintain design continuity, ensure supply chain availability, and support ongoing production or maintenance requirements for systems utilizing this sensor.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the CPC05GFC are identified based on the following critical parameters that determine functional compatibility:

Primary Compatibility Criteria:

• Pressure Type: Vented Gauge (all substitutes maintain this classification)
• Operating Pressure: 5PSI (34.47kPa) nominal rating
• Output Type: Wheatstone Bridge configuration
• Mounting Type: Through Hole, board mount applications
• Termination Style: PC Pin connectivity
• Package Configuration: 4-SIP Module form factor

Secondary Compatibility Considerations:

• Supply Voltage Range: Must accommodate 3V ~ 16V input or overlap significantly
• Output Signal Range: 0 mV ~ 60 mV (12V) or compatible signal levels
• Temperature Compensation: Required feature across operating range
• Port Style: Barbed or barbless tube connections (mechanical interface)
• Port Size: Nominal 0.15" to 0.19" tube diameter range

The substitute parts listed maintain the core functional parameters while offering variations in accuracy, maximum pressure rating, and port dimensions that remain within acceptable engineering tolerances for pressure sensing applications.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

TSCSANN005PGUCV (Honeywell TruStability® TSC Series)

This substitute is from an active product line within the same manufacturer ecosystem. The TSCSANN005PGUCV maintains identical 5PSI operating pressure and Wheatstone Bridge output architecture. Key distinctions include superior accuracy (±0.15% versus ±2%), extended maximum pressure rating (30PSI versus 15PSI), and broader low-temperature operation (-40°C versus -25°C minimum). The output signal range differs (0 mV ~ 25 mV at 5V versus 0 mV ~ 60 mV at 12V), requiring signal conditioning circuit evaluation. Port size increases from 0.15" to 0.19" tube diameter. Active product status ensures ongoing availability and technical support.

5 PSI-GF-CGRADE-MINI (Amphenol All Sensors ACPC Series)

This substitute maintains identical output signal range (0 mV ~ 60 mV at 12V) and operating temperature limits (-25°C to 85°C), minimizing signal conditioning modifications. Accuracy improves to ±1% from ±2%. The part is from an active product line with established supply chain presence. Port size increases to 0.18" tube diameter with barbless connection style. Maximum pressure rating increases to 20PSI. Supply voltage specification is fixed at 16V rather than the 3V ~ 16V range of the original part. Mechanical interface changes require tubing adapter evaluation.

Both substitutes are RoHS compliant and maintain PC Pin termination for direct board mount integration.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can TSCSANN005PGUCV directly replace CPC05GFC without circuit modifications?

A: Direct replacement requires signal conditioning evaluation. The output signal range differs (0 mV ~ 25 mV at 5V versus 0 mV ~ 60 mV at 12V). Existing amplification or analog-to-digital conversion circuits designed for 60 mV full-scale output must be recalibrated for 25 mV full-scale input. Port size increases from 0.15" to 0.19" tube diameter, requiring tubing adapter or connector modification.

Q: What are the mechanical interface differences between these three sensors?

A: CPC05GFC uses 0.15" (3.8mm) barbed male tube port. TSCSANN005PGUCV uses 0.19" (4.93mm) barbed male tube port with side port configuration. 5 PSI-GF-CGRADE-MINI uses 0.18" (4.57mm) barbless male tube port. Tubing compatibility must be verified; barbed connections require different hose specifications than barbless connections.

Q: Which substitute offers the best accuracy improvement?

A: TSCSANN005PGUCV provides the highest accuracy specification at ±0.15%, compared to ±2% for CPC05GFC and ±1% for 5 PSI-GF-CGRADE-MINI. This represents a 13-fold improvement in accuracy tolerance.

Q: Are all three sensors RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. CPC05GFC, TSCSANN005PGUCV, and 5 PSI-GF-CGRADE-MINI are all RoHS compliant with Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (unlimited shelf life).

Q: What is the supply voltage compatibility difference?

A: CPC05GFC accepts 3V ~ 16V input range. TSCSANN005PGUCV accepts 1.5V ~ 12V input range. 5 PSI-GF-CGRADE-MINI requires fixed 16V supply. Systems using lower supply voltages (below 3V) cannot use CPC05GFC or 5 PSI-GF-CGRADE-MINI but can use TSCSANN005PGUCV.

Q: Can these sensors be used interchangeably in existing PCB designs?

A: All three sensors use 4-SIP through-hole PC Pin termination and are designed for board mount applications. However, port size differences (0.15", 0.18", 0.19" tube diameters) and port style variations (barbed versus barbless) require mechanical interface verification. Signal output range differences require signal conditioning circuit evaluation before direct substitution.

Q: Which substitute has the highest maximum pressure rating?

A: TSCSANN005PGUCV has the highest maximum pressure rating at 30PSI (206.84kPa), compared to 20PSI for 5 PSI-GF-CGRADE-MINI and 15PSI for CPC05GFC.

Q: What is the temperature operating range difference?

A: CPC05GFC and 5 PSI-GF-CGRADE-MINI both operate -25°C to 85°C. TSCSANN005PGUCV extends the minimum temperature to -40°C, providing broader low-temperature capability.
