Sensor Products announces Pressurex Zero®, an easy-to-use flexible film that is placed between contacting or mating surfaces to instantly and accurately measure and map pressure magnitude and distribution. According to the company, Pressurex Zero features:

  • A range from 7.2 to 28 PSI (0.5 to 1.97 kg/cm²).
  • A thin clear plastic sheet (4 or 8 mm).
  • Availability in 8 different pressure ranges up to 43,200 PSI (1,300 - 3,000 kg/cm²).
  • Precise pressure magnitude determined by comparing color variation results to a color correlation chart.
  • Usability in invasive, intolerant environments and tight spaces not accessible to conventional electronic transducers.
  • Flexibility that enables it to conform to curved spaces.
