PDS-A - With strain output

Download a product Overview for KYOWA pressure transducers.

These micro-pressure sensors come with a diffusion type semiconductor strain gage formed on a silicon diaphragm, and senses pressure as resistance variation. This variation is converted to electric signals. Select from two models: PDS-A, the sensor itself; and PDV-A which is added by a built-in amplifier. The former, PDS-A, can work with a Kyowa signal conditioner.

• Fast response, high accuracy and high sensitivity
• Outstanding noise resistance
• ±5 V voltage output (PDV-A)
• Small size and lightweight
• PDS-A: Sensor itself
  PDV-A: Sensor and built-in amplifier

Notes: Handling precations

• The transducers is designed for indoor applications. Take care that the transducer, including its pressure inlet, is kept free from dew condensing and freezing.
• To use the transducer as a gauge pressure meter, apply pressure to its HIGH side and open the LOW side to the air.
• To measure atomospheric pressure, take care that the transducer’s pressure inlet is kept from rain water and others.
• Measuring instruments for PDS: Instruments with DC 10V bridge power (CDV -700A, CDV-21A signal conditioner; WGA-650A, 710A, instrumentation amplifier). N-70 connection cable is necessary on WGA-650A, and 710A.

Inquire about the high-stability type transducer w/heater and size variations of the pressure joint.
