New Displacement Transducer models added to range
Techni Measure has added a range of inductive sensors from Schreiber to their existing range of displacement transducers: these models offer linear measurements from 4mm full-scale range up to 360mm
The sensors come in ranges from 200kPa up to 3Mpa full scale, and have an integral 4-core 1m cable, for connection to standard strain gauge amplification systems.
The PDA model is a flat disc, 6.5mm diameter and 1 to 1.4 mm thick, with a side entry cable offering a very low profile pressure measurement.
The PDB has the same disc size, but with a vertical mount cable.
Both can be used safely immersed in water.
The rated output is about 1mV/V with a bridge resistance of 350 Ohms.
These sensors are included amongst the TML Civil Engineering transducer range, which includes several special designs for pore pressure, inclination, crack opening measurements, and ground movement.
Full size soil pressure measurement transducers are also available, and all these are shown in the TML Civil Engineering Transducers catalogue, which is freely available from Techni Measure.
