Differential pressure transducer

摘要

A differential pressure transducer has a measurement chamber which is divided by a membrane into first and second measurement spaces which can be exposed to first and second pressures whereby differential pressure causes deflection of the membrane from its neutral position. A deflection sensor measures the deflection of the membrane and produces a deflection signal. An electromagnet arrangement produces a magnetic force which compensates for the deflection force which is caused by the differential pressure. The coil current for producing the magnetic compensation force represents a measure of the differential pressure.
