Cylinder pressure sensors for glow plug adapters of Type 6542Q, M5x0.5 / 6056B

With cylinder pressure sensors of Type 6056B, a large number of different glow plug adapters can be equipped. No sensors with special lengths are necessary. This distinctly simplifies the preparation for indicating measurements and storekeeping. The excellent strain rejection, thanks to the measuring element being decoupled from the sensor housing, allows for installations even under demanding boundary conditions. Type 6056B pressure sensors are therefore ideally suited for modern and challenging engine applications. The new PiezoStar crystal from Kistler offers a high sensitivity combined with thermal and mechanical stability. Thanks to the very compact design and the high natural frequency of the sensors, the influences of engine vibrations, such as valve closing, are minimized. Type 6056B has the required sensitivity and accuracy for thermodynamic and efficiency studies, combined with the robustness needed for calibration and validation activities. Type 6056B sets a new standard for cylinder pressure measurement in glow plug adapters.
