Pressure Sensors and Transducers: PPT2-0300DKG5VS Application Field and Working Principle

Pressure sensors and transducers are essential components for measuring the pressure of liquids and gases, and they can be found in various industrial applications. The PPT2-0300DKG5VS from American Sensor Technologies (AST) is a pressure transducer which provides precision accuracy and reliability for a variety of industrial applications.

Application Field

The PPT2-0300DKG5VS pressure transducer is designed for use in a variety of industrial applications including oil and gas, water treatment, automotive, railway, marine, power, mining, aerospace, military, food processing and medical. This sensor can be used in environments where high levels of shock, vibration and temperature fluctuation is present, such as in off-shore oil rigs or aerospace. In addition, it is suitable for use in areas where hazardous materials may be present, such as in water treatment plants.

Working Principle

The PPT2-0300DKG5VS utilizes piezoresistive technology, which uses a strain gauge that is integrated into a diaphragm which is exposed to the pressure of the media being measured. When the pressure of the media is applied, the diaphragm deforms, changing the electrical resistance of the strain gauge. This change in electrical resistance is then converted by the sensor into a linear voltage. This voltage is then amplified and then converted into the pressure being measured by the sensor.

The transducer is designed with a very low drift and offset characteristics, making it very accurate and reliable over time. In addition, the unit is designed with a wide temperature range and is able to maintain its accuracy and reliability even in harsh environments.

Conclusion

The PPT2-0300DKG5VS pressure transducer from AST is an ideal solution for industrial applications where precision accuracy and reliability is needed in extreme environments. With its wide range of features and performance characteristics, it is the perfect sensor for applications such as oil and gas, water treatment, automotive, railway, marine, power, mining, aerospace, military, food processing and medical.
