Post category:2021 Trafag

Trafag has succeeded in unifying the highly dynamic response behavior of a test bench sensor and the extreme robustness of a mobile hydraulic pressure transmitter by combining thin-film-on-steel measuring cells and an ASIC developed in-house. The Trafag ASIC TX with an innovative parallel mixed-signal structure is the key to a response behaviour at nearly unlimited speed. In many applications, above all in the testing field, the aim is to record highly dynamic pressure curves, e.g in order to analyse the opening and closing performance of valves, track pressure curves of explosions and explosive pressure expansions or to examine brief pressure peaks in hydraulic systems. Transmitters for industrial applications on the market are generally…

The Sensor Master Interface (SMI) is used to set parameters of electronic pressure switches such as switching points, output function and switching delay time as well as to adjust the measuring range of submersible pressure transmitters. By reading the device data, the connected pressure measurement device can be precisely identified and the parameters can be checked. The parameterization of Trafags electronic pressure switches NAT 8252, NAH 8254 as well as NAR 8258 can now be carried out easily and directly on site with the Sensor Master Interface and the corresponding smartphone app. Until now, electronic pressure switches with different device configurations had to be kept in stock. In addition, optimization during system development…
