The purpose of this paper is to develop a digital hydrostatic pressure sensor with the required metrological and operational characteristics. The developed sensor is designed to control hydrostatic pressure in wells during various geophysical works and studies.
To obtain the required metrological and operational characteristics of the sensor, a method was developed and applied to reduce the measurement error based on the calibration algorithm and the sensor model.
By using the developed calibration algorithm and the mathematical model of the sensor, it was possible to compensate for the measurement errors of the hydrostatic pressure sensor.
In the course of this research, tests of the developed sensor were carried and the maximum/minimum of measurement result errors was determined.
