Rama,

You're looking for a "media isolated pressure sensor", commonly used for
hydraulics and such. As far as size requirements, these devices tend to
be somewhat larger than the non-isolated ones (which are used in contact
to non-volatile gasses only).

has to be in contact with the water media directly. It should be water proof and

to be relatively small. Can anyone help me in locating the vendors for this type
of sensor?
