Abstract
The load capacity of a new differential pressure gage that has been de veloped has been increased 24-fold by precompression of the piezoelect ric elements. The system proposed for force transmission in the gage s ignificantly increases the conversion factor. The gage is also more th ermally stable than previous designs. The symmetry and monolithic cons truction of the force-transmitting system enhances the vibrational sta bility of the gage and alleviates hysteresis.
