Description
Woodward 8901-457
Technical Specifications
- Product Type: Control Component / Sensor / Transducer.
- Signal Output: Standard industrial analog or digital signals.
- Compatibility: Designed for use with Woodward 2301, 505, or MicroNet controllers.
Functional Features
- Precision Measurement: Accurately measures physical parameters (pressure, position, or speed).
- Signal Transmission: Converts physical measurements into electrical signals for the controller.
- Durability: Built to withstand harsh industrial environments.
Application Scenarios
Used in fuel systems, lube oil systems, and valve actuation circuits across various prime mover applications.
Performance Parameters
- Linearity: High linearity for accurate control loop performance.
- Response Time: Fast dynamic response to process changes.
Material Composition
Stainless steel wetted parts for corrosion resistance. Hermetically sealed electronics to prevent moisture ingress.
Structural Characteristics
Compact, cylindrical, or flange-mounted design. Features standard process connections (e.g., NPT) and electrical connectors.
Working Principle
Utilizes strain gauge, inductive, or capacitive sensing elements to detect physical changes. Internal circuitry amplifies and conditions the signal for transmission to the control system.
Installation Requirements
Follow proper torque specifications for mechanical mounting. Ensure electrical connections are shielded and grounded correctly.
Usage Precautions
- Do not exceed the rated pressure or temperature limits.
- Calibrate the device periodically to maintain accuracy.
- Avoid exposing the sensor to mechanical shock or vibration.
