Meggitt Sensing Systems Introduces EndevcoPiezoresistive Dynamic Pressure Transducer

By DE Editors

Meggitt Sensing Systems has announced the introduction of the Endevco model 8510C, a rugged, miniature, high-sensitivity, high resonance gage piezoresistive pressure transducer, designed for dynamic measurements.

Offered in ranges of 15, 50 and 100 psig with 225 mV full scale output, the Endevco model 8510C offers high output within a small (3.86 mm diameter face) and lightweight (2.3 grams) package. The model 8510C pressure transducer also features non-linearity of <1% to three times over-range with 4X minimum burst pressure, 20,000 g shock resistance and high stability in temperature transients, according to the company. Meggitt’sEndevco pressure transducers feature a four-arm strain gage bridge ion implanted into a silicon diaphragm, designed for a wideband frequency response.  The company says integral hybrid temperature compensation provides stable performance over a temperature range of -18°C to +93°C (0°F to +200°F).

The Endevco model 8510C features a 10-32 UNF-2A mounting thread and comes standard with a 30-in. integral cable, with custom lengths available upon request. Models also come standard with a vent tube that can be connected to any standard reference manifold, used for differential pressure measurements, or referenced to the ambient atmosphere.
