Hello,

1) I want to connect this pressure sensor with 2 different drives, is it possible to connect one pressure sensor with 2 different drives?
2) What parameter of sensor might affect if we connect the sensor in such manner?
 

Which kind of Pressure sensor you have? Common sense! usually one sensor can not be used to measure a Quantity from two different places. it is quite illogical.

we can't connect But However if we connect the sensor with tow places Experimently, it will measure the Addition of both quantities.
 

I am using MSP340 pressure sensor from meas-spec, i think you misunderstood, actually i want to control two drives with one hardware and those two drives operates depending upon the pressure they get from pressure sensor, in sort i am planning to build a hardware which can control the two drives depend upon the demand of water, for that i am using pressure sensor.

Hope you understand

Hello friends i am waiting please guide me
 

Use code #5 (1-5volt output.)
Use small diodes as per schematic.

I think you can use 2 buffers for each Drive
 
Use code 5 Means? didnt get you ?

# Pilko what type of diode i have to use?

# Davoud, can you elaborate more on this?

Actually my question is, if i am using one pressure sensor for 2 diffrent drive, does it affect on performance of pressure sensor? is it possible? i am planning to develop a hardware which can control two diffrent drive parallely (drive is connect to pump) depend upon demand of water.
 

Read the manual/datasheet for code 5.
Any diodes will be OK.
To test, put pressure on sensor and check both outputs with volt meter before connecting to your control interface/drives.
 

Where is the Manual of code 5? i am unable to found a any link over here ?

Do you have any suggestion how would i develop such hardware which can control two diffrent drive parallely (drive is connect to pump) depend upon demand of water. generally people call such hardware as Alternator
 

See page 4/5 code 4 connection (not code 5 as I previously stated).

Google MSP340 pressure sensor ---- this site will not let me upload a JPG file
 

Yes i got it, Thanks.

I asked you one another question too, Do you have any suggestion how would i develop such hardware which can control two diffrent drive parallely (drive is connect to pump) depend upon demand of water. generally people call such hardware as Alternator.
 

More info is required before someone can help you (I may be unavailable for a few days)

- motor voltage?
- motor power?
- ac or dc?
- starting (inrush current)?
- control strategy (what do you want the pump to do and under what conditions)?
- what is your skill level?
