Description
Flexible installation The compact size the TTF-1 pressure transducer allows it be used in applications where mounting space is very limited. Rugged sensor element The TTF-1 sensor is machined from a single piece of stainless steel. The thin film Wheatstone bridge is applied to the diaphragm using a physical vapor deposition process called sputtering. This process forms a tight molecular bond with the sensor diaphragm. This eliminates the risk of sensor creep that may occur over time with bonded foil strain gauge designs that use an adhesive to bond the sensor to the diaphragm. The high grade stainless steel design of the sensor element provides a stainless steel barrier between the sensor element and the media. This completely welded, dry measuring cell does not require the use of any internal pressure transmission fluid. TTF-1 sensors constructed of Elgiloy are available for special requirements.

Possible versions of the TTF-1 Pressure Transducer

The sensor element is welded directly to the pressure port. This eliminates the use of soft sealing materials that may deteriorate and leak over time. It also eliminates weak points that sometimes occur when o-rings or adhesive joints seals are used. Excellent all-around performance The TTF-1 provides is temperature compensated from -40 F ... +212 F (-40 C ... +100 C), so that in most applications no additional temperature compensation is required. The pressure transducer offers high overpressure safety and is resistant to pressure spikes and dynamic pressure changes. In addition the TTF-1 is an excellent sensor for applications where high accuracy, zero point stability and low temperature error are essential requirements. Individual customer designs Based on many years of production experience, WIKA can provide customer-specific designs for quantities above 1000 pieces.
