Pressure sensors for air data systems require high performance and exceptional accuracy to meet reduced vertical separation minimum (RSVM) requirements. Crane meets the need with a pressure sensor technology that can be configured as primary grade pressure sensors ideal for sensing altitude and airspeed.
Crane pressure sensors utilize Silicon-On-Sapphire sensing technology for superior accuracy, reliability and stability. An integral temperature sensor located directly on the pressure diaphragm provides for optimum temperature compensation.
