What is a Temperature Transducer?: Temperature Transducer is one of the most widely measured and controlled variable in industry, as a lot of products during manufacturing requires controlled temperature at…
Photoelectric Transducer Working Principle: Photoelectric Transducer can be categorized as photo emissive, photo-conductive or photo-voltaic. In photo emissive devices, radiation falling on a cathode causes electrons to be emitted from…
Strain Gauge Load Cell Working Principle: Strain Gauge Load Cell - The Load Cell is used to weigh extremely heavy loads. A length of bar, usually steel, is used as…
Linear Variable Differential Transformer (LVDT): The differential transformer is a passive inductive transformer. It is also known as a Linear Variable Differential Transformer (LVDT). The basic construction is as shown…
Thermistor Working Principle: Thermistor Working Principle - The electrical resistance of most materials changes with temperature. By selecting materials that are very temperature sensitive, devices that are useful in temperature…
Types of Strain Gauge Transducer: Types of Strain Gauge Transducer are three types, namely Wire Strain Gauge Foil Strain Gauge Semiconductor Strain Gauge Wire Strain Gauge: Wire Strain Gauge has…
Strain Gauge Factor Derivation: The Strain Gauge Factor Derivation is an example of a passive transducer that uses the variation in electrical resistance in wires to sense the strain produced…
Resistive Position Transducer: The principle of the Resistive Position Transducer is that the physical variable under measurement causes a resistance change in the sensing element. (A common requirement in industrial…
