Cylinder Pressure Transmitter Type 6613CA 2. Description 2.1 Introduction The pressure transmitter Type 6613CA contains a piezo- electric sensor and an integrated charge amplifier. The pressure transmitter is made for continuous cylinder pressure monitoring of large gas engines. Suitable for gas engines ...
Cylinder Pressure Transmitter Type 6613CA 2.3 Working Principle The cylinder pressure is acting on the diaphragm. The diaphragm converts the pressure in proportional force on the sensor element. The piezoelectric sensor element converts the force into a charge. The charge is converted by a charge amplifier into a voltage.
Sensor must be tightened according the mounting torque If there are any question regarding installation please contact Kistler. Fig. 5: Sensor installed underneath the indicator valve in adapter Type 7523B… 6613C_002-026e-02.16 Page 7...
Cylinder Pressure Transmitter Type 6613CA 3.2 Recommended Mounting Fig. 6: Mounting bore for Type 6613CA Mounting torque is 15 N·m 3.2.1 Sealing A leakproof mounting of the sensor is essential to prevent overheating of the sensor by leaking hot gases. Good...
This cable can be made by the user. The connector M12x1 on the charge amplifier is very common in industrial application. Use a shielded cable, otherwise the sensor is not conform with CE rules. The following connecting cables are available from Kistler. Type 1700A69 1700A69A1...
Calibration In order to calibrate the Type 6613CA with a static pressure the time constant needs to be changed from short (5 s) to long . This is done by connecting pin 3 to a voltage of 3 … 32 V.
Installation 3.2.6 Special Hints for Spark-Ignited Gas Engines Gas engines have extremely strong EMC-fields, which can affect the transmitter signals. Please make sure that resistance spark plugs are used, normally the charge amplifier and the cable of the sensor, is ...
Cylinder Pressure Transmitter Type 6613CA 4. Operation After starting up the engine check for any gas leakage at once. If there is any gas leaking out, stop the engine and rectify the mounting to achieve a complete sealing (see chapter 4).
Calibration is recommended after one year of operation. This can be done on the either with a dead weight tester, or with the calibration equipment available from Kistler. Please contact your Kistler representative for technical consultation. Never use wire brushes, screw drivers or any other sharp pointed instrument for cleaning the diaphragm.
Cylinder Pressure Transmitter Type 6613CA 6. Trouble Shooting 6.1 Repair The transmitter cannot be repaired on site. In case of incorrect functions or broken parts the sensor must be sent to factory. Page 14 6613C_002-026e-02.16...
