What type of pressure does this sensor measure?

This AEM sensor measures gauge pressure (PSIg), which is pressure relative to atmospheric pressure. It will read 0 PSIg when exposed to the atmosphere. This makes it suitable for measuring pressures in closed systems like oil, fuel, or brake lines.

What is the thread size on the sensor?

The sensor has a 1/8in NPT male thread. The kit also includes an adapter to -4 AN, which allows you to connect to AN lines. Refer to the manufacturer's instructions for proper installation and sealing techniques.

What is the difference between a brass and stainless steel pressure sensor?

AEM says that stainless steel pressure sensors provide more accurate readings than brass sensors. While brass sensors can provide a good reference for pressure, stainless steel sensors are better when you need exact details of the pressure, such as for ECU calibration.

Product Details

There are many different tools that can be used for measurement, but the degree of accuracy is dependent upon the tool. For example, a ruler can measure distance with a good degree of accuracy, but for a more precise measurement a caliper should be used. The difference between a brass pressure sensor and a stainless steel pressure sensor is similar if we think about it in these terms:AEM offers high quality stainless steel PSIg sensors in 100, 150, 500, 1,000, and 2,000. Gauge style pressure sensors reference pressure above atmospheric pressure. When exposed to atmospheric pressure, gauge style pressure sensors will read 0 psig. Gauge style pressure sensors are commonly used for oil pressure, fuel pressure, brake pressure, nitrous pressure etc.1000 PSIg Stainless Sensor Kit.
