Honeywell is pleased to announce its new Basic Force Sensors, TBF Series-Honeywell's smallest force sensor. The TBF Series Basic Force Sensor extends Honeywell's Basic Pressure Sensor platform (TBP Series) into the flush diaphragm space previously occupied by Honeywell's 1865 Series Force Sensors. The TBF Series are flush diaphragm pressure sensors designed for customers who require a simple device for applications where media compatibility and low trapped volume are important. Precisely controlled diaphragm height makes the sensor useful in applications where force is applied by a flexible membrane to the sensor, such as infusion pumps.
