New 6-Channel High-Temperature Calibration System
Kistler offers a new system for simultaneous calibration of up to six piezoelectric sensors from room temperature up to 250 °C (optional). The system basically consists of a solid metal block with installation ports for six sensors, a pressure generator, reference sensor and a signal evaluation unit. For calibration at temperatures above room temperature the sensor manifold is equipped with a thermostatically controlled heating and cooling system.
The new calibration system is suitable for fast and highly accurate calibration of piezoelectric pressure sensors for engine indication. When PiezoSmart® pressure sensors (with sensor identification) are used the determined calibration values are automatically saved in a pressure/temperature map and stored on the transducer electronic data sheet (TEDS) of the sensor.
Advantages:
o Simultaneous calibration of up to 6 sensors
o Automatic calibration
o Temperature range from room temperature to 250 °C
o No manual data handling necessary with sensor identification
o Automatic retention of new calibration data in TEDS
