Pressure

Piezoelectric Pressure Sensor Type 701A

High Sensitivity Pressure Range 250 bar

Quartz pressure sensor for measuring dynamic and quasi-static

KIAG 10-32
pressures up to 250 bar at temperatures up to 200 C.

Pressures up to 250 bar

Temperatures up to 200 C
High sensitivity

Description
The measured pressure acts through the diaphragm on the
quartz crystal measuring element, which transforms the
pressure p (bar) into an electrostatic charge Q (pC = pico
Coulomb).

The stainless steel diaphragm is welded flush and hermeti-

cally to the stainless steel sensor body. The quartz elements
are mounted in a highly sensitive arrangement (transversal
effect) in the quartz chamber, which is welded hermetically to
the body. Technical Data

The connector is welded to the body, but its fluoropolymer
insulator is not absolutely tight.
Application
The quartz pressure sensor Type 701A is suited for dynamic
pressure measurements. For very high frequencies or reduced
mounting space the sensor Type 601 is used.
