The
Ashcroft® K1 transmitter introduces the benefits of polysilicon thin
film performance at affordable prices. 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 agent to contribute to signal instability or
drift.
The polysilicon strain resistors combine very low noise levels with very
high signal output. There are no semiconductor (p-n) junctions to change
with temperature, time or use. The integral metal diaphragm and
polysilicon bridge are virtually unaffected by shock, vibration or
mounting position.
These transmitters are offered in many standard pressure ranges with
either current or voltage output signals. Transmitter 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 transmitter. |
