Model 8510C is a rugged, miniature, high sensitivity piezoresistive pressure transducer. Its high
sensitivity combined with high resonance makes it ideal for measuring dynamic pressure. It has a 10-32
mounting thread, 0.15 inch (3.8 mm) face diameter and is available in ranges from 15 psi to 100 psi. The
model 8510B is available for lower and higher pressure ranges.
Endevco pressure transducers feature a four arm strain gage bridge ion implanted into a unique
sculptured silicon diaphragm for maximum sensitivity and wideband frequency response. Self-contained
hybrid temperature compensation provides stable performance over the temperature range of 0°F to
200°F (-18°C to +93°C).
Endevco transducers also feature excellent linearity (even to 3X range), high shock resistance, and high
stability during temperature transients.
8510C is designed for a wide variety of aerospace, automotive and industrial measurements which
require a combination of small size, high sensitivity, and wideband frequency response. Typical
applications include process control, jet engine inlet pressure measurements and wind tunnel flow
measurements. Its vent tube may be connected to a standard reference manifold or used for differential
pressure measurements.
Recommended electronics for signal conditioning and power supply are models 126 and 136 general purpose three channel
conditioners, ultra low noise 4430A conditioner, or the 4990A-X (Oasis) multi-channel rack mount system.
