The requirements of aerospace programs have brought about refinements in the fabrication of small precision pressure transducers in recent years. This paper describes the Gulton Model GS-1 pressure transducer, which was designed primarily for installation on automobiles. Considerations in its development were: corrosive or solvent characteristics of the pressure media commonly encountered in the automobile engine compartment; vibration and shock levels; electromagnetic interference constraints; temperature variations; calendar and cycle life; electrical power available; size and weight; mounting, including pneumatic and electrical connection; and cost. Design details for satisfying these considerations are discussed.
