Reliable Pressure Sensing

pressure_transducer pressure-transducer

Kar-Tech Pressure Transducers bring accurate, dependable pressure sensing to demanding hydraulic applications. A rugged, media-isolated metal diaphragm and advanced Application Specific Integrated Circuits (ASIC) put precision, durability and long-term reliability in a cost-effective package.

Available in  0–3,000 PSI and 0–5,000 PSI versions, these pressure transducers provide fast response times of less than 2 milliseconds and outstanding measurement accuracy. Their rugged, all-weather construction makes them ideal for mobile hydraulic systems and other demanding applications needing dependable pressure feedback.

These pressure transducers come in two output options: 4mA to 20mA and 0.5VDC to 4.5VDC. Reverse voltage protection prevents misfiring, and metal wetted components enable use with varied fluid types.
