Today’s combustion engine professionals face particular challenges when developing new engines utilizing high compression ratios, turbo charging and direct injection to reduce emissions and increase fuel efficiency. Did you know that Kistler offers special versions of many popular pressure sensors for use in combustion applications for engines operating where spontaneous combustion or very high peak pressures may occur?
Kistler Type numbers with the “U20″ extension are heavy duty versions featuring a reinforced diaphragm capable of withstanding pressures common during knock or pre-ignition. These sensors are also highly suited for modern diesel engines where cylinder pressures can often be close to or even above 250 bar. The U20 version of each sensor compliments the standard version and helps to maximize the lifetime of your combustion pressure sensor inventory.
Ask for “U20″:
When selecting a combustion sensor for use in knocking or high peak pressure ranges, look for the “U20″ extension:
• 6045AU20
• 6052CU20
• 6056AU20
• 6125CU20
The “U20″ extension information is included on the data sheets for these sensors.
