Pressure transducer

A pressure transducer is a device that measures the pressure of gases or liquids and converts that measurement into an electrical signal. It works by sensing the force exerted by the fluid on a sensitive element inside the device. When pressure changes, the transducer detects this and produces a corresponding electrical output, allowing for accurate monitoring and control in various applications such as industrial processes, healthcare, and automotive systems. Essentially, it translates physical pressure into an electronic form that can be read, recorded, or used to trigger other equipment.
