Gefran IE Series Impact Melt Pressure Sensor

Product Description

Product Description

The "IMPACT" series of Gefran, are pressure transmitters, without transmission fluid, for using in High temperature environment (350 Degree Celsius). Medium pressure is transferred directly to the sensitive silicon element via a thick diaphragm. Strain is transduced by a micro-worked silicon structure (MEMS). The operating principle is piezoresistive

"IMPACT" is Gefran's exclusive series of high-temperature pressure sensors that use the piezoresistive principle.The main characteristic of "IMPACT" sensors is that they do not contain any transmission fluid.The sensitive element, directly positioned behind the contact membrane, is realised in silicon through microprocessing techniques. The micro structure includes the measurement membrane and piezoresistors.The minimum deflection required by the sensitive element makes it possible to use very robust mechanics. The process contact membrane can be up to 15 times thicker than the membrane used in traditional Melt sensors.

Advantages

Total compatibility with the European RoHS Directive.

High strength

Long life

Excellent read stability over time-

Fast response time

Other types of diaphragms are available on request

Autozero function on board / external option

15-5 PH stainless steel diaphragm GTP+ coated AUTOZERO

Function:

All signal variations in the absence of pressure can be eliminated by using the Autozero function. This function is activated by closing a magnetic contact located on the transmitter electronics or by an external contact. The procedure is allowed only at zero pressure. The Autozero function should be activated only when the sensor is completely installed on the system.
