Molding Pressure Sensors use single wire technology.
With respective front diameters of 4 and 6 mm, models 6157B and 6152A use single wire technology to speed in-the-mold pressure sensor installation for large plastics molds. Handling wire lengths up to 5 m, procedures such as shortening cables and attachment to connectors are accomplished without soldering. Push-on connectors enable slipping-in stripped wires to make connections. Sensors are...
