WHsensors has a few main advantages in its sensor design that give it flexibility to manufacture semi-custom and custom pressure sensors. The one-piece sensor construction is capable of being manufactured from various materials. Standard stainless steels include 17-4 PH and 316L; more exotic materials include 316L VAR, Inconel 718, Grade 4 Titanium, and Hastelloy C276. The strain gages used by WHsensors with its one-piece construction produce enough raw output signal, that the sensor can be designed with higher proof and burst pressure ratings.
In certain custom applications, only a diaphragm and strain gages are required, with the sensor being embedded into medical devices or custom pressure or flow controls. WHsensors can machine the sensor as a drop-in component for a variety of applications. Sensors can be designed with a variety of China and international threads, weld rings, and O-ring seals to assist designers with the best fit, form and function.
Being a manufacturer of pressure transducers, WHsensors has a high level of expertise and flexibility in amplification and calibration. WHsensors can customize the electrical output signal for voltage, current, frequency or digital interfaces per customer requests. Custom temperature compensation and pressure test parameters can be met. WHsensors works everyday with customers from the design, prototype, and production phases to ensure the best product is made for the application.
The electrical connection is another area of flexibility.WHsensors manufactures pressure sensors and transducers with a variety of cable and connector options. From wire leads to cable assemblies with connectors, pressure sensors can be customized to exact customer specifications to ensure products plug-in to existing designs or make a simple transition for new ones.
