PPT2-0001DXG5VS

Pressure Sensors, Transducers are used to convert one form of energy into another for use in a wide variety of applications. The PPT2-0001DXG5VS is an example of a device specially designed to convert electrical signals into pressure or force measurement.

Application Field

The PPT2-0001DXG5VS is suitable for applications in medical, automotive, manufacturing, and various other industries. It functions as a pressure switch, detecting pressure changes in closed loop systems or pressure gauges, where the output usually consists of a signal that indicates an increase in pressure. Furthermore, it can be used for monitoring pressure in appropriate conditions, as well as providing a signal in cylinder and pin configurations for various other applications.

Working Principle

The working principle of the PPT2-0001DXG5VS is based on the mechanical strain gauge principle, whereby a resistance wire is embedded in a flexible material. When the material is subjected to pressure, the resistance wire changes its electrical resistance due to the mechanical strain caused by the pressure. The change in resistance of the strain gauge is termed a bridge ratio, from which pressure, force, or torque can be measured.

The PPT2-0001DXG5VS device consists of a bridge circuit, which contains two input resistors and two flanges that are connected to a strain gauge. The flanges are made of a flexible material and are subjected to the mechanical strain caused by the pressure. When the pressure or force is applied to the flanges, the resistance of the strain gauge changes, causing a change in the bridge ratio.

The bridge ratio of the PPT2-0001DXG5VS is then used to calculate the pressure, force, or torque of the system in which it is used. This information is then translated into an electrical signal that is sent to the output. The device is also capable of incorporating a wide variety of sensing systems to measure analog and digital pressure signals.

The PPT2-0001DXG5VS is a reliable device that can be used for a variety of applications requiring the measurement of pressure, force, or torque. Its bridge circuit provides an accurate measurement of the applied pressure or force, while its ability to measure digital and analog signals makes it a versatile choice for various applications.
