Strain gages designed for extreme conditions: high temperature, humidity and pressure
Do you need strain gages for high-temperature, high-humidity and high-pressure measurements?
The Kyowa encapsulated strain gage is a welded type with a completely airtight structure. It consists of a sensing part and a cable that outputs the signal from the sensing part. The sensing part includes a flange and an environmentally resistant metallic tube that houses the encapsulated gage and insulator. This part can be fixed to the measurement material through spot welding.
The cables are constructed from inorganic insulated MI (Mineral Insulated) cables, where a metal sheath is filled with heat-resistant insulating material powder, embedding a conductor inside. With the high-temperature model, strain measurement can be performed even in extreme environments involving high temperature, high pressure and high humidity.
