Sensor Measures Pressures up to 6,000 BAR (87,000 psi)
Kistler’s Type 6215 pressure sensor uses a quartz crystal sensing element packaged with a front-sealed diaphragm in a rugged, stainless steel housing. Design for internal ballistics, closed bomb testing, weapons discharge and cartridge chamber testing, and other extreme high-pressure measurement requirements, the Type 6125 sensor has measurement range from 0 to 6,000 bar (0 to […]
Hydrogen Pressure Sensor for Fuel-Cell Vehicles
Fuel-cell vehicles are among the automotive industry’s research efforts to reduce the dependence on petroleum. Monitoring the high pressure in the hydrogen storage tank(s) for a minimum of 10 year life expectancy is just one of the challenges in bringing these vehicles to volume production. With it’s recently introduced AST 2000H2 Hydrogen ASIC Pressure Sensor, […]
Measure Industrial Differential Line Pressures up to 2,000 PSI
It’s amazing how much information a sensor’s package conveys regarding its application. American Sensor Technologies, Inc. (AST) AST5400 screams industrial, high pressure. In fact, the wet / wet differential pressure sensor can measure line pressures up to 2,000 PSI. With microelectromechanical system (MEMS) technology as the sensing mechanism, the package uses Krystal Bond Technology to […]
