Ashcroft K2 Thin Film Pressure Transducer with Conditioned Millivolt Output
The K2 is similar to the K1 Series except offering mV/V output options. The K2 is a proven and versatile pressure transducer incorporating polysilicon thin film technology. Modern low-pressure chemical vapor deposition methods provide simple, stable molecular bonds between a proven metal diaphragm and a polysilicon strain gage bridge. There are no epoxies or bonding agents to contribute to signal instability or drift. The integral metal diaphragm and polysilicon bridge are virtually unaffected by shock, vibration or mounting. These transducers are offered in many standard pressure ranges with high-quality millivolt output signal ratio-metric to supply voltage. Transducer performance is directly traceable to the National Institute of Standards and Technology and specifications are conservatively stated. A calibration test certificate is available with each transducer.

- Vac - 20,000 psi pressure range
- Superior long-term stability and repeatability
- Stainless Steel NEMA 4X enclosure
- Conditioned millivolt output
- Wide range of pressure and electrical connections available
Applications
Hydraulic, machine tool, test and measurement, and all general purpose industrial process applications.
