hello everyone,

I am working with a type 8323 pressure sensor by burkert. I am inputting 15 Volts, and am reading the output by creating a potential divider with a constant resistor and the sensor. Is there a particular relationship I can create in order to realize the pressure using the voltage input in real time?
All the information for the sensor can be found in this link: https://www.burkert.com/en/type/8323
thank you so much for all your help.
Any recommendations, equations or arduino codes will be really appreciated.

I look forward to reading your advice.

Why do you need a voltage divider? You insert a low magnitude shunt resistor into the current loop and measure the voltage. This quantity is divided by the value of the resistor, giving the current. The ratio of the current to 20ma is the ratio of the full scale pressure
