15 Jan 2000
Control Transducers, the Bedford-based sensor manufacturer, is able to build or modify pressure sensors specially tailored to individual requirements.
The aim of the company is to advise customers in choosing and specifying usage of pressure sensors to give trouble free operation at the highest quality and at the right cost.
The basic sensing element used has a guaranteed lifetime of over 100 million cycles at rated capacity and an accuracy of +/-0.25 per cent including the effects of non-linearity, hysterisis and repeatability. Pressure ranges from 200mbar to 1400bar in many specific calibration ranges, with a range of options and accessories.
Also offered is a mechanical thread connection to requirement for different electrical configurations such as Wheatstone bridge or voltage amplified output.
