Cylinder pressure sensor suits slower
engines
Kistler has introduced a new version of its successful Type 6613C cylinder pressure sensor specifically for slow-running marine propulsion engines.
Kistler has introduced a new version of its successful Type 6613C cylinder pressure sensor specifically for slow-running marine propulsion engines The Type 6613CB21 sensor/charge amplifier combination has a very low cutoff frequency making it ideal for high precision cylinder pressure monitoring at operating speeds from 30rev/min

Sensor measures mould cavity pressure indirectly
Cavity pressure is usually measured with the sensor fitted directly in the mould cavity, but Kistler's new PinSens force sensor type 9204 is ideal for indirect cavity pressure measurement
The two-wire current output charge amplifier, allowing the output signal to be transmitted over long distances, and 200bar measuring range making the Type 6613CB21 suitable for most marine applications.
An integral cable interconnects the quartz piezoelectric pressure sensor and the charge amplifier incorporated in the plug.
As a result of its patented design, the measuring element is insensitive to integral mounting stresses and largely tolerant of dirt and contamination.
The sensor has been designed so that an exceptionally long service life can be achieved, even with the corrosion and contamination inherent in heavy-oil engine applications.
