National Instruments is partnering with Honeywell to offer a wide range of bridge-based load cells, pressure transducers, and torque sensors. NI has tested each of these sensors and verified them for use with the NI PXIe-4330, NI PXIe-4331, NI 9219, and NI 9237 devices. Each sensor is Transducer Electronic Data Sheet (TEDS) enabled for ease of use. There are two different types of cable assemblies available; for RJ50 and Pigtail connectivity, NI offers 3ft. cables (783252-01 and 783255-01), 15ft. cables (783253-01 and 783256-01) and 25 ft. cables (783254-01 and 783257-01).
Honeywell Model TJE pressure transducers are all-welded stainless steel sensors built for rugged industrial applications that require high accuracy and measurement stability. The Model TJE features a variety of options for extended temperature operation, electrical terminations, and high-level outputs including 5 VDC or 10 VDC and 4 mA to 20 mA. Most high-level output models have internal shunt calibration circuits as a standard feature to allow easy setup of the sensor to the data system. An optional internal signature calibration chip provides calibration information for automatic setup with the Model SC 4- or 12-channel digital indicator.
The gage Model TJE is a strain gage-based transducer and features a unique “true gage” design that uses a second welded stainless steel diaphragm that hermetically seals the strain gage circuitry from atmospheric contamination. This design references the primary pressure sensing diaphragm to the atmosphere and provides a stable zero regardless of the transducer environment.
The absolute Model TJE has an all-welded vacuum reference chamber ensuring long-term stability.
