For the units to last for long ensure that you buy them from a reputable store. This is to increase the chances of buying high-quality units. Extruder Supplies stock different types of transducers such as Gefran pressure transducers. We have different types and sizes of Gefran pressure controller.

Transducers are named devices that adjust
energy starting from one form onto the next.
They are generally present in products, for
example, car horns, microphones, and
photoelectric cells. They are considered as
biological converters predominantly in
applications including the rods and cones of the
eye and the hair cells of the ear.

Some of the most common transducers in the
market are:
Active & Passive Transducers
Active transducers source their power from
physical loads and then
produce their current and
voltage outputs. The
most common types are
photovoltaic cells,
thermocouples, and
piezoelectric crystals.
Passive transducers on
the other hand produce
their power from
external sources of
power. The most
common types of these
are resistive, capacitive, and inductive
transformers.

Primary & Secondary Transducers
Primary transducers depend on an input
detecting mass, heat, density, and depth data,
and then convert the signal into readable
information. These types of transducers are
controlled by an on/off switch. Great examples
of these units are thermistors and
thermocouples. In secondary transducers,
mechanical displacement produces electrical
signals. For example piezoelectric and
accelerometers.
Rotary Displacement & Linear Displacement
Transducers
Linear displacement transducers produce
electrical signal outputs that are directly
proportional to what that the sensor detects.
Rotary transducers on the other hand measure
shaft setting using non-contact capacitance.

5. WWW.EXTRUDERSUPPLIES.COM
The most common types of these units are
magnetic rotary position and optical rotary
sensors.
Analog & Digital Transducers
Analog transducers transmit a readable
continuous analog
reading of any input
that it receives.
Great examples of
these transducers
are strain gauge
and thermistor.
Digital transducers
on the other hand
create non-
continuous pulses that are naturally disjoined.
Great examples are vortex flowmeters and
beam instruments.

All these units are designed to be sensitive in
some areas and not others and when you place
them in the wrong areas they will not only give
you the wrong readings, they may also get
damaged. For the units to last for long ensure
that you buy them from a reputable store. This
is to increase the chances of buying high-quality
units. Extruder Supplies stock different types of
transducers such as Gefran pressure
transducers. We have different types and sizes
of Gefran pressure controller.
