High range pressure sensors are engineered to deliver accurate and reliable pressure measurements in environments where conventional sensors would falter. They are specifically designed to handle the extreme pressures encountered in hydraulic and pneumatic systems, often reaching hundreds of bars or thousands of psi. These sensors are built to withstand not only the high pressure levels but also the rapid pressure fluctuations and potential shock loads common in such applications.
Hydraulic Systems and High Pressure
Hydraulic systems rely on high pressure to generate significant forces and torques, making them indispensable in heavy machinery, construction equipment, and industrial processes. High range pressure sensors play a crucial role in monitoring these systems, ensuring operational efficiency, and preventing catastrophic failures that can result from overpressure. The robust design of these sensors enables them to endure the demanding conditions of hydraulic systems, including pressure spikes, vibrations, and potential hydraulic fluid contamination.
Pneumatic Systems and High Pressure
While pneumatic systems generally operate at lower pressures than hydraulic systems, certain applications demand high pressure pneumatic control. High range pressure sensors are employed in these instances to monitor and regulate pressure, ensuring safe and efficient operation. Although pneumatic systems lack the “hammer effect” of hydraulic systems, the potential for high-velocity projectiles due to escaping high-pressure gas necessitates careful monitoring and control.
Pressure Units and Ranges
High range pressure sensors are calibrated to measure pressure in various units, including bar (bar), megapascals (MPa), pounds per square inch (psi), and kilopounds per square inch (ksi). The choice of unit depends on the specific application and industry standards. It’s crucial to select a sensor with an appropriate pressure range to ensure accurate measurement and prevent sensor damage. Exceeding the sensor’s maximum pressure rating can lead to inaccurate readings or even sensor failure.
