7881 T Series Digital Air Pressure Transducer7881 T Series Digital Air Pressure Transducer

 
Frequency output
High accuracy
Exceptional low-drift characteristics
Robust
Calibration traceable to NPL and NIST

The primary use of this pressure transducer series is to sense absolute air pressure as an integral part of Air Data Computers and Full Authority Digital Engine Controls and in other avionics systems where the device’s frequency output, high accuracy, robustness and exceptional low drift characteristics are essential to system performance.

The design of this particular transducer makes it an ideal choice for use within Air Data Test Sets where the high accuracy and repeatability, of this transducer, is essential to measurement and control of air pressures.
