A new, drop-in replacement for older types
of electromechanical synchro transducers
(transmitters), is now available from Kulite
Sensors.
The new APTE-4-2250 series is a synchro
type IS® pressure transducer featuring
Kulite's patented
Piezoelectric sensor replaces electromechanical
types
Silicon on Insulator (SOI)
piezoresistive sensors and custom
electronics, offering significant
improvements over electromechanical
devices but retaining equivalent fit, form
and function.

Benefiting from no moving parts, no friction
or position errors, plus better accuracy and
stability than its mechanical counterparts,
the new APTE-4-2250 series transducer is
also more cost-effective. It is able to
withstand high vibration and shock levels,
and therefore offers high reliability and high
MTBF;moreover, it is acceleration and
vibration insensitive, hermetically sealed
and EMI protected.
Flight certified and already used on DC-9
and MD-80 series aircrafts, the new synchro
type transducer is designed for a pressure
range between 2 and 10,000psi, and an
operating temperature range from -55 to
+95°C. It can be used at any altitude, in up
to 100% humidity. Proof pressure is twice
full scale pressure, and burst pressure is
three times full scale.
