Pressure transducer now offers protection against high intensity light and particle impingement rugged, in a miniature transducer for blast effect studies or aerodynamic surfaces
This rugged, miniature transducer is well suited for blast effect studies, measurement of surface pressure gradients on helicopter or turbine blades, flex circuit applications on aerodynamic surfaces during flight tests, or small-scale models in wind tunnel tests.
The Model 8515C transducer's small size (0.030-inch thin by 0.250-inch diameter) enables easy installation on curved surfaces with minimal effect on laminar air or hot gas flow.
The Model 8515C and lead wires can also be recessed into the mounting surface for a flush fit.
Additional features include high overload capability, high frequency response, very low base strain sensitivity and excellent temperature performance from 0F to 200F (-18C to +93C).
The transducer is available in 15 and 50 full scale ranges.
A rubber fairing is an available option for airflow smoothing for flight test applications.
The Model 8515C can be specially ordered with wider temperature compensation or rectangular housings.
