The Viatran 24A pressure transducer is a highly adaptable silicon sensor with an output of 0-5 Vdc, and 3000-5000 psi (0.2 to 345 bar). It can be used efficiently in a host of industrial settings, because of the wide range of pressure measurements with a standard linearity measuring ±0.25% FSO or less. Additionally, even higher linearities of ±0.15% or ±0.10% FSO may be requested. Again, apart from the standard output signal range of 0-5 Vdc, other options are available.
Features
The Viatran model 24A offers:
- Flexibility for applications at low pressure
- Excellent precision
- Conformity with RoHS standards
- Multiple options for linearity and output signal range
- Constructed wholly of stainless steel
- An optional circuit for calibration of the shunt
Representative Uses
The 24A is commonly used for applications such as:
- Hydraulic devices
- Pumps and compressors
- Rolling mills
- Die cast processes
- Test stands for production or engines
