Pressure Sensors feature piezoelectric, quartz elements.

Press Release Summary:



Series 111/112/113 measures rapidly-changing pressure fluctuations over wide amplitude and frequency range. Hermetically-sealed housings and laser-welded flush diaphragms provide undistorted high frequency response. Units offer dynamic ranges to 20 kpsi, resonant frequencies to 500 kHz, and sensitivities to 100 mV/psi. They provide dynamic measurements of compression, combustion, explosion, pulsation, cavitation, blast, shock wave, pneumatic, hydraulic, and fluid pressures.

Dynamic Piezoelectric Pressure Sensors


April 1, 2003, Depew, NY - Quartz pressure sensors from the Pressure Division of PCB Piezotronics are designed for dynamic measurements of compression, combustion, explosion, pulsation, cavitation, blast, shock wave, pneumatic, hydraulic, fluid, and other such pressures.

ICP® or charge output pressure sensors, structured with naturally piezoelectric, stable quartz sensing elements, are well-suited to measure rapidly-changing pressure fluctuations over a wide amnplitude and frequency range. Solid-state construction, hermetically-sealed housings, and laser-welded flush diaphragms provide undistorted high frequency response, ruggedness, and durability, even in adverse environmental conditions.

PCB's Series 111/112/113 pressure sensors are available with dynamic ranges to 20k psi, resonant frequencies to 500k Hz, and sensitivities to 100 mV/psi. Stock models and alternate mountings are available.
