Ground-Isolated Pressure Sensor Type 6125C...

Kistler: The use of highly-sensitive piezoelectric combustion pressure sensors with built-in ground isolation can largely avoid the effects of electrical interference. The isolation of the sensing element prevents the generation of noise currents and allows interference-free measurements, even if potential differences exist between the engine and the measuring system. The new Kistler Type 6125C... is the third generation of a combustion pressure sensor with built-in ground isolation.

The use of a new Kistler PiezoStar crystal has made it possible to increase the sensitivity to –37 pC/bar and the pressure range to 300 bar. This innovative sensor ensures precise and reliable measurement data even under noisy testing conditions.

Advantages

• Pressure range up to 300 bar
• High sensitivity due to new PiezoStar® crystal
• Ground-isolated
• Low thermal shock error, very low load-change drift
• PiezoSmart® sensor identification
• Mounting dimensions compatible with predecessor Type 6125B…
