Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The P528-300-A-C2C qualifies as a direct substitute for the P158-300A-C2C based on the following critical parameters:

• Pressure Rating: Both sensors measure 300PSI absolute pressure
• Output Characteristics: Identical analog voltage output range (0.5V - 4.5V)
• Port Configuration: Both feature Female 1/4" (6.35mm) NPT threaded connection
• Termination Style: Both use connector-based termination
• Temperature Compensation: Both include temperature compensation circuitry
• Compliance: Both are RoHS compliant with MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited)

The P528-300-A-C2C represents an active product from the same manufacturer with enhanced specifications, including improved accuracy (±2%), extended operating temperature range (-40°C to 125°C), and higher maximum pressure rating (600PSI).

Parameter Comparison

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the P528-300-A-C2C directly replace the P158-300A-C2C in existing installations?

A: Yes. Both sensors share identical pressure ratings (300PSI absolute), output voltage ranges (0.5V - 4.5V), port configurations (Female 1/4" NPT), and termination styles (Connector). The mechanical and electrical interfaces are compatible.

Q: What are the key differences between these two sensors?

A: The P528-300-A-C2C is an active product with enhanced specifications: documented accuracy (±2%), extended operating temperature range (-40°C to 125°C versus -30°C to 100°C), amplified output capability, and higher maximum pressure rating (600PSI). The P158-300A-C2C is obsolete.

Q: Are there any supply voltage compatibility considerations?

A: The P158-300A-C2C requires 4.75V - 5.5V supply voltage, while the P528-300-A-C2C accepts 4.5V - 5.5V. The substitute has a slightly lower minimum voltage threshold, providing broader compatibility with standard 5V power supplies.

Q: Do both sensors require identical connector types?

A: Both sensors use connector-based termination. Verify connector specifications in your system design documentation to ensure mechanical compatibility during installation.

Q: Is the package size identical between these two sensors?

A: Both use cylinder-type packaging. The P528-300-A-C2C specifies detailed dimensions (38.1-56.39x43.97mm). Confirm physical dimensions against your mechanical design requirements before final selection.

Q: Are both components RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both the P158-300A-C2C and P528-300-A-C2C are RoHS compliant with MSL rating 1 (Unlimited), suitable for industrial automation environments.
