XPC15GTC Pressure Sensor Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The XPC15GTC is a vented gauge pressure sensor manufactured by Honeywell Sensing and Productivity Solutions, designed for board mount applications requiring 15 PSI (103.42 kPa) pressure measurement. This sensor outputs a Wheatstone Bridge signal of 0 mV to 90 mV at 12V supply voltage and features temperature compensation across an operating range of -25°C to 85°C.

The XPC15GTC is classified as an obsolete product. Identifying equivalent and substitute components is necessary to maintain system functionality, ensure supply chain continuity, and support legacy equipment maintenance where direct replacement with current-generation sensors may not be feasible.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the XPC15GTC is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

Primary Substitution Criteria:

• Operating pressure rating of 15 PSI (103.42 kPa)
• Vented gauge pressure type
• Wheatstone Bridge output configuration
• Output range of 0 mV ~ 90 mV at 12V supply
• ±1% accuracy specification
• 4-SIP Module package type
• Through hole mounting configuration
• Operating temperature range of -25°C to 85°C
• Temperature compensation feature

Secondary Compatibility Factors:

• Supply voltage range must accommodate 12V operation
• Port connection style (barbed or barbless) affects tubing compatibility
• Port size variations (0.19" vs. 0.18") require mechanical assessment
• Maximum pressure rating must equal or exceed 45 PSI

The substitute part 15 PSI-GF-CGRADE-MINI manufactured by Amphenol All Sensors Corporation meets all primary substitution criteria. Minor differences in port size (0.18" versus 0.19") and port style (barbless versus barbed) represent mechanical variations that require evaluation within the specific application context.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 15 PSI-GF-CGRADE-MINI from Amphenol All Sensors Corporation is an active product with current manufacturing status, providing supply chain advantage over the obsolete XPC15GTC. Both components share identical pressure ratings, output characteristics, accuracy specifications, and operating temperature ranges.

The substitute part demonstrates superior maximum pressure capability (60 PSI versus 45 PSI), providing additional safety margin in applications subject to transient overpressure conditions. Both components maintain RoHS compliance and MSL Level 1 moisture sensitivity ratings.

The primary engineering consideration involves port geometry differences. The XPC15GTC features a 0.19" barbed male tube connection, while the 15 PSI-GF-CGRADE-MINI provides a 0.18" barbless male tube connection. These mechanical variations require assessment against existing tubing specifications and connection methodology in the target application. The barbless design of the substitute part may necessitate alternative tubing retention methods compared to the barbed original design.

Supply voltage specification differs: the XPC15GTC accepts 3V to 16V input, while the 15 PSI-GF-CGRADE-MINI is specified at 16V. Applications operating at supply voltages below 16V require confirmation that the substitute part maintains specified output characteristics at the intended operating voltage.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 15 PSI-GF-CGRADE-MINI directly replace the XPC15GTC without circuit modifications?

A: Electrical compatibility is established through identical Wheatstone Bridge output configuration, matching output range (0 mV ~ 90 mV at 12V), and equivalent accuracy (±1%). However, the substitute part is specified at 16V supply voltage, whereas the original accepts 3V to 16V. Applications operating at supply voltages below 16V require confirmation of output characteristics at the intended operating voltage. Mechanical tubing connections differ due to port size and style variations.

Q: What are the mechanical compatibility considerations between these two sensors?

A: The XPC15GTC uses a 0.19" barbed male tube connection; the 15 PSI-GF-CGRADE-MINI uses a 0.18" barbless male tube connection. Barbed connections rely on mechanical interference for tubing retention, while barbless connections require alternative retention methods such as hose clamps or compression fittings. Existing tubing sized for 0.19" connections may not provide optimal fit with 0.18" ports. Mechanical integration assessment is required before substitution.

Q: Are both sensors suitable for the same pressure range applications?

A: Both sensors are rated for 15 PSI (103.42 kPa) operating pressure with identical vented gauge configuration. The 15 PSI-GF-CGRADE-MINI provides higher maximum pressure rating (60 PSI versus 45 PSI), offering additional overpressure protection. For applications operating within the 15 PSI nominal range, both sensors provide equivalent functional performance.

Q: What is the significance of the product status difference?

A: The XPC15GTC is classified as obsolete, indicating discontinued manufacturing and limited future availability. The 15 PSI-GF-CGRADE-MINI maintains active product status with current production, ensuring long-term supply chain availability and access to current manufacturing documentation and support.

Q: Do both sensors meet the same compliance and environmental standards?

A: Both components are RoHS compliant and carry MSL Level 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity ratings. Both operate across the identical temperature range (-25°C to 85°C) with temperature compensation features. Compliance profiles are equivalent for these specified parameters.
