A pressure sensor can provide the right measurement if it addresses critical application criteria. To address several application requirements, Measurement Specialties M5200 uses a modular design concept. For operation in harsh environments, the sensor has a 316L stainless steel housing with a pressure port machined from a solid piece of 17-4 PH or 316L stainless […]

Submersible Level Transducer
The KPSI 745 submersible hydrostatic level transducer from Measurement Specialties, Inc. uses pressure sensing technology to monitor liquid level. The transducer’s 3.5-in OD allows its installation into 4-in pipes to provide precision depth measurement under the environments encountered in slurry or highly viscous applications. Targeted applications include level monitoring in lift station monitoring, pump control, […]
Higher Operating Temperature for Submersible Level Transducer
With its recently increased maximum operating temperature of 85°C, Measurement Specialties KPSI Model 342 submersible level transducer can handle even more applications in surface water, groundwater, down hole, tailrace and forebay monitoring as well as oceanographic research. The unit contains an Application Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC) that provides a 4-20 mA analog output with digital […]
Magnetic Encoder Adds Option to Positioning Measurements
Designers who use Hall-effect sensors or optical encoders should check out the full capabilities of the Measurement Specialties, Inc. KMA36 universal magnetic encoder. Using anisotropic magneto resistive (AMR) technology to measure the magnetic field angle of an external magnet, the contactless sensor operates over a rotation of 360° as well as incremental positions along a […]
