PRESSURE SENSING QUARTZ CRYSTAL RESONATOR RKMA-P APPLICATIONS RKMA-P is a quartz crystal resonator which is packaged in a rectangular enclosure. The resonance frequency varies with the pressure-induced stress. The crystal unit is designed as a precision electronic pressure sensor for transducer, manometers, and controllers with a frequency output for the conversion of the absolute pressure to frequency. FEATURES - High resolution and accuracy - Long term quartz crystal stability - Wide temperature range (-55…+80 °C) - Low power consumption Suitable for precision pressure equipment ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS (at normal climatic conditions) / OPERATING CONDITIONS PARAMETERS SPECIFICATIONS AND REMARKS UNITS Electrical characteristics Model RKMA-P-1 Frequency range, fO RKMA-P-3 RKMA-P-4 RKMA-P-2 32.000…48.000 Resonance resistance typ./max., Rr 120; 150 / 200 Drive Level max., DL Insulation Resistance min. kHz 150; 200 / 250 kΩ 4.0 µW 400 MΩ Motional characteristics f(P)=fO +A1*P +A2*P2+ A3*P3, There: f(P) – crystal frequency at pressure P (Hz), fO – crystal’s frequency at zero pressure (Hz), P – pressure (MPa), A1 – Linear coefficient = Sensitivity A2, A3 –second and third order coefficients.
