Jeff Watson, a systems applications engineer in the High Temperature Strategic Marketing Group of Analog Devices, explains the high temperature measurements in ADI’s demo at Sensors Expo 2011 to Randy Frank. With the 175°C rated ADXL206 accelerometer and the 210°C rated AD8229 instrumentation amplifier, rotation can be measured inside an oven. For more information about […]

Accelerometer Designed for Continuous Operation to +482°C (+900°F)
At 482°C, Meggitt Sensing Systems Endevco model 6233C is rated considerably higher than the recently announced 6222S model that had a maximum 260°C operating environment. Available standard ranges of 10, 50 and 100 pC/g, the model 6233C offers a differential output with excellent performance stability over temperature and a wide operational bandwidth. The case isolated […]
High Temperature Pressure Sensor Targets Gas Turbine Monitoring
Most pressure sensors are offered in plastic packages and operate in a maximum ambient temperature of 125°C or less. Monitoring the pressure of a gas turbine requires a totally different approach. IMI Sensors Series 176 pressure sensors use a stainless steel housing and piezoelectric sensing technology to tolerate the extreme heat environment (+986°F, +530°C) generated […]
Accelerometer Operates in Continuous 260°C Environment
Designed for monitoring vibration in gas turbines, Meggitt Sensing Systems Endevco Model 6222S accelerometer is a piezoelectric design with sensitivities of either 20, 50 or 100 pC/g. The sensor’s piezoelectric technology does not require an external power supply. The unit’s balance differential output allows its use with any industry differential charge amplifier. The sensor’s packaging is […]
High Temperature LVDT Position Sensor for Military/Defense Applications
The usual 150C maximum operating temperature won’t cut it in many military and defense applications. For those who need to make position measurements in ranges of ±0.05″ to ±10″ [±1.25 mm to ±250 mm] at operating temperatures up to 400°F (200°C), Macro Sensors HSTAR 750 Series Hermetically Sealed Position Sensors could provide the solution. In […]
