The AST4000 pressure sensor from American Sensor Technologies is specifically designed for the hydraulic industry. The pressure port of this pressure sensor is made from a single piece of high strength stainless steel, ensuring an extremely low stress to strain curve of the diaphragm. Furthermore an internal welded restrictor plug is used. This reduces the inside diameter of the pressure port, dampening pressure spikes in the system before they reach the sensor’s diaphragm. It also reduces the overall length, cost and potential leak points in the system. This pressure sensor has an all stainless steel housing welded to the sensing element.
