High-sensitivity piezoelectric ICP pressure sensors measure fast pressure transients, surges, spikes, and pulsations in paper slurry delivery systems. Models 106C10 and 106C20 ICP dynamic pressure sensors can be used for detecting and monitoring dynamic pressure pulsations of paper slurry in headbox and piping systems, and for troubleshooting root causes of slurry flow irregularities. The units generate a low-noise, 300 mV/psi output signal, are installed through check valves, and adjust for flush-mounting within the slurry flow. Because the sensors are ac-coupled devices, any ambient, static background pressure or very slow pressure changes are ignored, permitting the units to monitor low-level dynamic pressures while being subjected to high static background pressure levels.
