The Kistler Series 4260/4262 General Piezoresistive
Static Pressure Sensors are versatile high performance
pressure sensors that will operate in harsh test environments
where temperature extremes, high vibration and shock
levels are present.
The 4260/62A… series sensor is based upon proven Kistler
piezoresistive sensing technology that has been continually
developed and refined since the early 1970's. A silicon sensing
element is mounted within a high integrity seal assembly
that is fully isolated from the pressure media by a welded 316L
stainless steel or Hastelloy™ diaphragm. The silicon sensing
element exhibits high performance for stability and repeatability,
extremely important parameters for the Test Engineer.
The pressure sensing assembly features a unique sealing method
(patent pending) that enables the sensor to withstand multiple
cycles without fatigue that is especially useful in cyclic applications.
This design also enables flexibility in choice of pressure
connections without the use of adaptors or 'O' rings.
Surface mount electronics condition the output from the silicon
sensing element and provide temperature compensation.
Additional electronic circuit boards can then be added to configure
the electrical output for a wide choice of voltage and
mA outputs. As a result, the 4260/62A… series can be quickly
configured at the factory to the customer's choice of electrical
output to suit a variety of data acquisition systems. Additionally,
non-interactive zero and span calibration adjustments can be
provided.
EMC protection, reverse polarity, power supply regulation, over
voltage and short circuit protection is provided, ensuring the
4260/62A… series is well suited for the harsh test environments
that are commonplace in the automotive and aerospace test
markets.
The 4260/62A… series is stocked in popular types and pressure
ranges. Prior to shipping the sensor is adjusted to suit the required
pressure range and engineering units, the zero and span
checked and the sensor finally completed with a choice of electrical
and pressure connections.
Finally, every 4260/62A… series sensor is fully tested over both
pressure and temperature to ensure compliance to the specifications.
This data is available for each sensor and is traceable to
ISO 17025 and NIST.
