The Type 6124A uncooled cylinder pressure sensor has a measuring range of 0 to 300 bar at up to 350°C, and is suitable for both laboratory and on-road applications claims Kistler. Featuring the company’s PiezoStar, it’s claimed the sensor offers good thermal sensitivity and linearity characteristics (thermal sensitivity shift ≤±1 %) and linearity (≤± 0.3 %).
The shoulder-sealed design of the sensor allows for a flush-mounted installation in the cylinder head and the company says it offers an extensive range of mounting accessories ensure that the sensor can be installed through the water-jacket directly or by using a mounting sleeve.
