26PCBFC2G

A pressure sensor, also known as a transducer, is a device designed to sense pressure and convert that pressure into an electric signal. Pressure sensors have many varied applications and come in a variety of sizes, configurations and sensitivities. The 26PCBFC2G is a pressure sensor that has an application in the field of hydraulic control, pressure measurement, and flow control, as well as a variety of other kinds of pressure related applications.

Overview of 26PCBFC2G

The 26PCBFC2G, also known as a series-type pressure transducer, uses a capacitive sensing principle to detect the applied pressure. It provides accurate pressure measurements over a wide-range of ambient temperatures. It can measure both steady state and dynamic pressures in a variety of applications ranging from hydraulic fluid, air speed and static pressure to kinetic pressure, due to its immunity from electromagnetic interference. The 26PCBFC2G is available in multiple ranges from 0-100 psi to 0-400 psi and has a maximum pressure limit of 1000 psi.

26PCBFC2G Working Principle

The 26PCBFC2G’s working principle is based on the fact that the dielectric constant of a sensor element is proportional to the applied pressure. The sensing element of the 26PCBFC2G is structured in such a way that the applied pressure compresses an internal diaphragm, thus changing its dielectric constant. The dielectric constant change is then detected by a capacitive bridge circuit, which is integrated with an integrated circuit for amplification, temperature compensation, and linearization. The signal is then outputted as an analog signal or as a digital signal.

Advantages of the 26PCBFC2G

The major advantages of the 26PCBFC2G include its high accuracy, wide range of operation, excellent linearity, low power consumption, and high stability. Additionally, the transducer has a long service life, due to its design with a stainless steel housing and reinforced diaphragm. It also has a wide dynamic range and can be easily calibrated. Additionally, the transducer supports various types of output signals like analog current, voltage, frequency and digital SSI, and supports a variety of communication protocols including CANBUS, RS 232/ RS 485, wireless, and USB.

Conclusion

The 26PCBFC2G is an ideal solution for various applications that require accurate and reliable pressure measurements. It is robust, accurate, and provides excellent linearity over a wide range of ambient temperatures. Additionally, it can be easily calibrated and offers a variety of output signals and communication protocols. This makes the 26PCBFC2G a great choice for applications such as hydraulic control, pressure measurement, and flow control.
