Abstract

In this paper, a differential pressure sensor with magnetic transfer is proposed, in which the non-electric measurement based on the fiber Bragg grating (FBG) with the position limiting mechanism is implemented without the direct contact of the sensing unit with the measuring fluid. The test shows that the designed sensor is effective for measuring differential pressure in the range of 0~10 kPa with a sensitivity of 0.0112 nm/kPa, which can be used in environments with high temperature, strong corrosion and high overload measurements.

Summary

Introduction

The differential pressure sensor has been widely used in differential pressure signal measurements of fluid. When the fluid flows through the point to be measured, the tiny pressure difference between the two sampling points can be measured by the sensor [1]. With the development of sensing technology, FBG has become one of the candidates to replace those traditional electronic sensors [2,3,4,5]. In order to guarantee the sensitivity and durability of the sensor, special approaches should be taken in real measurement environments with high temperatures, high pressures, overload [7,8] and corrosion [9,10].
