CR-Series Copper Crusher & Gages – Technical Data

The System
The Crusher measuring system is a proved
method for the determination of inner-ballistic
maximum pressure in combustion chambers.
With the help of a device resp. the Crusher
measuring apparatus, a copper body is loaded.
The plastic deformation which results from the
load is the measure for the pressure.
