The Ashcroft ® K1 is a proven and versa-
tile pressure transducer/transmitter incor-
porating polysilicon thin film technology.
Modern low-pressure chemical vapor dep-
osition methods provide simple, stable
molecular bonds between the metal
diaphragm and a polysilicon strain gage
bridge. There are no epoxies or bonding
agents to contribute to signal instability
or drift. The integral metal diaphragm and
polysilicon bridge are virtually unaffected
by shock, vibration or mounting.
These transmitters are offered in many
standard pressure ranges with either cur-
rent or voltage output signals. Transmitter
performance is directly traceable to the
NationaI Institute of Standards and
Technology. A calibration test certificate is
available with each transmitter.
