MBS 8200 is a series of compact pressure
transmitters developed to withstand the pressure
pulsations and vibrations known in mobile and
industrial hydraulic applications.
A new technology combining piezo resistive
sensor element and programmable gain
ampliers makes the MBS 8200 the obvious
choice for applications demanding highest
accuracy and insensitiveness against temperature
variations. Further this technology enhances the
functional safety by limiting the output signal
at excess pressure conditions, it allows excellent
sink/source capabilities and it leave the pressure
transmitters unaected by electromagnetic elds
up to 100 V/m.
MBS 8250 with integrated pulse-snubber is
designed for use in tough applications with
severe media inuences like cavitation, liquid
hammer or pressure peaks.

Application
Cavitation, liquid hammer and pressure peaks may
occur in hydraulic systems with changes in ow
velocity, e.g. fast closing of a valve or pump starts
and stops.
The problem may occur on the inlet and outlet
side, even at rather low operating pressures.
The media viscosity has only little eect on the
response time. Even at viscosities up to 100 cSt,
the response time will not exceed 4 ms.
