MediaGauge™ (Model MG1-9V) Digital Pressure Gauge
Product Overview
Product Description
The MediaGauge™ Model MG1-9V is a NEMA 4X rated stand
alone 9V battery operated multi-functional digital pressure gauge
with a standard input pressure port made of 316L stainless steel
which has better pitting corrosion resistance in some media, such
as
seawater.
The MediaGauge™ MG1-9V is well suited for
marine applications.
The
MediaGauge™
MG1-9V
contains
a
media
isolated
piezoresistive pressure sensing element, signal conditioning
circuitry for temperature and calibration compensation, a pressure
port and a LCD back lit display. The MG1-9V has an
accuracy of
± 1.0% full scale
and is a lower cost alternative in the SSI
MediaGauge™ family of digital pressure gauges.
The MediaGauge™ MG1-9V comes standard with a variety of
keypad operated functions – multiple pressure unit display reading
(PSI, BAR or MPA); memory storage of maximum peak pressure
reading; and zero adjustment.
The MediaGauge™ MG1-9V is made of all laser-welded 316L
stainless steel for optimal media isolation and usage in a wide
variety of media and corrosion or oxidation resistant applications.
These compact 2 ½ inch, robust gauges measure pressures from
5 PSI to 5000 PSI and are well suited for a variety of industrial and
commercial
applications
such
as
marine,
refrigeration,
compressors, pumps, hydraulics, pneumatics and waste water.
The MediaGauge™ MG1-9V digital pressure gauge has better
accuracy, longer life and standard multiple functions which make it
a better choice than mechanical pressure gauges.

Product Overview
Typical Applications:
General Purpose, Test, Process

Cells; Pumps; Hydraulics; Spraying Systems;
Pneumatics; Flow; Robotics; Agriculture; Hydrogen
Storage
Measurement Technology
In general, pressure measurement technology translates a
force from an induced pressure into an electrical quantity. In
digital pressure gauges, the electrical quantity is then
translated into pressure units and digitally displayed.
The SSI’s MediaGauge™ MG1-9V digital pressure gauge
includes an 316L stainless steel input pressure port, a
piezoresistive pressure sensing element, signal conditioning
circuitry for temperature and calibration compensation, and
a LCD that displays the pressure measured in either PSI,
BAR or MPA (kg/cm²) units.
The piezoresistive sensing element consists of an oil filled
micro-machined 316L stainless steel convoluted diaphragm
with a silicon crystal sensor. The silicon crystal sensor is
mounted on a 304L stainless steel housing and laser
welded to the diaphragm.
Optimal media isolation is
achieved when the media’s pressure acts directly on the
316L stainless steel diaphragm and is then transferred
through the oil to the silicon sensor.
Strain gauges (resistive elements) in the silicon are used in
a Wheatstone Bridge circuit. When pressure is applied, the
resistivity of the strain gauges changes proportional to the
pressure applied. One leg of the bridge measures the input
pressures port. The other leg of the bridge is connected to
the reference port (vacuum pressure 0 PSI) the input
pressure port is compared to.

MediaGauge™ (Model MG1-9V) Digital Pressure Gauge
Product Overview
Since piezo resistive pressure sensors are sensitive to
changes in temperature, the MediaGauge™ MG1-9V uses
signal conditioning to compensate for temperature and
calibration. The output signal is then converted into one of 3
user selectable forms (select units with the ON/UNIT/OFF
button):
1) PSI
2) BAR
3) MPA (kg/cm²)
To turn the LCD backlight off:
The MediaGauge™ MG1-9V will display the pressure
reading after the ON/UNIT/OFF button is depressed. The
pressure measurement reading is updated 3 times per
second.

Press the LIGHT/P-H button
To manually power down the unit:
Press the ON/UNIT/OFF
button and hold down for 3 seconds until OFF is displayed and
then release the button.
The
LIGHT/P-H (Peak-Hold) button
is used to turn the LCD
backlight on/off and to display the maximum peak pressure the
unit has measured.
To turn the LCD backlight on:
Press the LIGHT/P-H button once.
To see the maximum peak pressure the unit has measured:
Press and hold down the LIGHT/P-H button for 3 seconds. The

MediaGauge™ MG1-9V Panel
MediaGauge™ MG1-9V panel has a LCD display and three multi-
functional buttons – ON/UNIT/OFF; LIGHT/P-H (Peak-Held) and
RESET/CLEAR.
The
ON/UNIT/OFF button
is used to display the pressure
reading; switch between pressure units (PSI; BAR; and MPA) and
to power down the unit.
To return to the current pressure reading:
Press the LIGHT/P-H
button and hold down for 3 seconds.
