Pressure Sensors / Detectors / Transducers
Pressure Sensors measure surges, pulsations, and spikes.
Press Release Summary:
Intrinsically safe for use in hazardous environments, Series 102M can detect flow anomalies in piping systems. Sensors permit use of 2-wire cable systems and may be used in dirty environments with virtually no signal degradation. Low-impedance signal may be transmitted over long cable distances. Available in various mounting configurations, dynamic units offer ranges to 20,000 psi and sensitivities to 300 mV/psi.

Intrinsically Safe, Dynamic Pressure Sensors Measure Surges, Pulsations, and Spikes
November 10, 2004, Depew, NY - The Pressure Division of PCB Piezotronics, Inc., introduces a series of dynamic, ICP® pressure sensors that have been certified under ATEX and CSA (Canada and US) as intrinsically safe for use in hazardous environments. Series 102M pressure sensors are ideal for monitoring the performance of compressors, pumps, and gas turbines because they measure dynamic pressure events such as surges, pulsations, and spikes. These sensors also detect flow anomalies in piping systems.
Sensors may be used with ICP® signal conditioning and permit the use of a variety of inexpensive 2-wire cable systems. The low-impedance signal may be transmitted over long cable distances, and the sensors may be used in dirty environments with virtually no signal degradation. Various mounting configurations are available, with pressure ranges up to 20,000 psi (137.9 MPa) and sensitivities to 300 mV/psi (43.5 mV/kPa).
