Keller Company Ultra High-Speed Pressure Sensor M5

Many applications today require not only accurate measurements but also fast measurements. In this context, the dynamic behavior of sensors becomes particularly important in addition to measurement accuracy. While the limiting frequency of electronic circuits, sampling rates, or similar parameters are often recognized as decisive factors, this is actually just one aspect, and it is necessary to consider the entire sensor system. How much speed is required from the sensor? What are the factors that truly affect the dynamic characteristics of the sensor? I will explain why not only electronic circuits but the entire sensor design is important. I will introduce typical application examples that require millisecond-level speeds, provide findings from test results, and assist you in selecting the optimal sensor according to your needs.

Pressure Measurement Under Severe Conditions FPT Motorenforschung AG, headquartered in Albon, Switzerland, develops engines for vehicles and machinery in the powertrain division of CNH Industrial. Approximately 220 staff members are on-site developing new FPT products for commercial vehicles, construction machinery, agricultural machinery, and industrial and marine applications, with engines being tested on a total of 30 test benches. To measure engine efficiency, FPT Motorenforschung uses tools such as the M5 series pressure sensors from KELLER, a specialist in pressure sensors based in Switzerland. "The engines we develop and test in the factory meet the most stringent quality requirements in terms of materials, emissions, and efficiency. This means that when inspecting the engines on the test bench, we must consider all variables that affect the engine's performance. Therefore, precise measuring instruments are required to obtain accurate and reliable measurements, even under special conditions inside the engine," said the head of the Testing Engineering/Electronic Measurement Department at FPT Motorenforschung AG.
