A pressure transducer is a device, which converts the pressure applied to it into a measurable electrical signal. These transducers are used in applications, such as leak testing, altitude sensing, pressure sensing, depth or level sensing, and more. However, if these transducers are not calibrated over time, they may start showing false readings, which

Pressure transducers, also known as pressure transmitters or pressure sensors, are used to convert pressure into analog electrical signals. Stain gages are bonded into the diaphragm of the transducer. The gages are wired into a Wheatstone bridge configuration. The deformation of strain gages converts pressure into an electrical signal, which is used to drive further
