ENHANCEMENT OF THE MEASUREMENT CHARACTERISTICS OF PRESSURE TRANSDUCERS UP TO 15000 BAR THROUGH MONOLITHIC MEASURING DESIGN AND FOIL STRAIN GAGES
Markus Haller, Wolfgang Viel, André Schäfer
Abstract:
High-pressure measurement technology continues to evolve and the design HBM is promoting for its series P3M pressure transducers has been strongly developed since the beginning of 2000. It involves a monolithic measuring body using foil strain gages for electro-mechanical signal conversion. This design has been tried and tested for years and even developed into the standard in high-pressure measurement technology. The monolithic design of the measuring body offers excellent measurement characteristics and is outstanding for its accuracy, ruggedness and stability. Increasing industry requirements regarding maximum pressure, resistance to overload and, in particular, accuracy resulted in continuing and consistent further development of high-pressure measurement technology. The experiences gained in improving details over the past years have been collected and implemented in a new, enhanced version.
