P51-50-G-J-P-4.5V-000-000 Datasheet/PDFApplication Field and Working Principle of P51-50-G-J-P-4.5V-000-000
This article belongs to the Pressure Sensors and Transducers field.
Introduction
The P51-50-G-J-P-4.5V-000-000 pressure sensor, also known as the “G-type”, is a pressure transducer that converts mechanical pressure into a proportional electrical signal. It is part of the P51 series used in industrial, commercial, and medical services, and is designed to produce an output voltage in the range of 4.5 volts.
Types of Pressure Sensors
There are four main types of pressure sensors: absolute, gauge, relative, and vacuum. Absolute pressure sensors measure the total pressure of a system, while gauge pressure sensors measure the difference between the atmospheric pressure and the pressure in the system. Relative pressure sensors measure the difference between two columns of pressure or two points in the system, and vacuum pressure sensors measure the vacuum pressure of a system.
Working Principle
The P51-50-G-J-P-4.5V-000-000 pressure transducer converts mechanical pressure into an electrical signal and has a typical pressure-sensing range of 5 PSI to 100 PSI. When a mechanical pressure is applied, the strain gage bridge mounted on a diaphragm measures the pressure and sends a signal based on the strain in the gage to an amplifier. The amplifier amplifies the signal and sends an output voltage of 4.5 volts.
Applications
The P51-50-G-J-P-4.5V-000-000 pressure transducer is used in a variety of applications including medical equipment, industrial controls, instrumentation systems, and automatic environmental control systems. It is also used in hydropower plants to measure the water pressure and load on turbines. Additionally, because of its small size and low cost, it is used in portable medical devices such as oximeters and blood pressure monitors, as well as in medical implants such as pacemakers.
Conclusion
The P51-50-G-J-P-4.5V-000-000 pressure transducer is an affordable and effective pressure sensing device that can be used in a variety of applications. It is able to accurately measure pressures in the range of 5 PSI to 100 PSI and has an output voltage of 4.5 volts. It is suitable for both industrial and medical applications, and is used in a wide range of equipment and systems.
