You will be hard pressed to even find a quality pressure transducer for that amount. Pressure transducers with suitable parameters are not generally widely-available, as on the shelf items. Is it possible to find one? Yes, if you look long enough. Ours are built to our specifications and the unit cost is more than one hundred dollars even when purchased in volume.
