Industrial vibration and pressure monitoring instrumentation manufacturer IMI Sensors announced the release of Models 176A03 and 176A05, very high / extreme temperature differential charge pressure sensors with a UHT-12™ sensing element. IMI has developed these sensors to be used in the combustion instability monitoring of power generation and aviation gas turbines.

The new UHT-12™ crystal technology features:

• Absence of pyroelectric noise spikes up to 1,200°F (649°C)
• Sensitivity that remains more consistent over a wide temperature change
• No depletion of oxygen at high temperatures, thereby not requiring a vent or window in the housing

IMI offers various differential charge amplifiers to support the launch of Models 176A03 and 176A05, including Models 421A3X, EX682A40 and 422M182.
