Miniature pressure sensor uses new DCE technology
A miniature piezoresistive absolute pressure sensor, Type 4005A, from Kistler uses Direct Chip Exposure technology to give superb linearity, minimal hysteresis and an extremely high natural frequency
The single-wire technology replaceable cables simplify mould manufacturing by needing only a bored hole to accommodate the cable, which can be cut to length after installation.
As several cables can be threaded down a single bore, the single wire sensor is ideal for multi-cavity mould applications.
In addition, the new sensors are suitable for use with multi-channel cable technology allowing up to eight sensors to be connected to a Kistler process monitoring system using a single cable and connector.
This arrangement is very space efficient in multi-cavity moulds, which are easier to equip and cheaper to cable.
Kistler multi-channel systems now also use Unisense technology so that all sensors have the same sensitivity, to simplify the configuration of monitoring systems.
