Page 7: General Information
Direct Measuring Mold Cavity Pressure Sensors, Type 6183A… and 6183AC… 1. General Information Sensor diameter ø1 mm and ø2,5 mm must not be machined Sensor front must be clean and without notches Use only recommended mounting tool Do not pull the sensor out of the hole by pulling on the cable. -
Page 8: Important Hole Conditions
Important Hole Conditions 2. Important Hole Conditions The measuring hole can influence the function and life of the sensor. Inaccurate holes can lead to measuring errors due to the inclusion of transverse forces acting on the sensor. Fig. 3: Installed sensor Fig. -
Page 9: Holes For Sensors
Direct Measuring Mold Cavity Pressure Sensors, Type 6183A… and 6183AC… 3. Holes for Sensors The sensor is mounted front flush in the measuring hole in the cavity wall. The pressure in the cavity is transferred via the sensor front directly onto the piezoelectric measuring element, which produces a proportional charge. -

Page 11: Adapting The Sensor Front To A Contour
Direct Measuring Mold Cavity Pressure Sensors, Type 6183A… and 6183AC… 3.2.1 Adapting the Sensor Front to a Contour The front of the sensor can be machined with a radius or slanted surface, also when mounted in the mold. However, if the cavity wall is eroded with a mounted sensor, it must be ensured that no liquid enters the connector, for example by sealing the rear sensor body with silicone sealant. -
Page 12: Sensors With Chrome-Plated Front
Holes for Sensors Sensors with Chrome-Plated Front This applies to sensor Types 6183AC… The chrome-plated front triples the life of the sensor in the injection molding of glass-reinforced or fiber-reinforced plastics. The front region of the sensor tip is chrome plated for this purpose up to the O-ring and has the same dimen- sions as the unplated sensor. -
Page 13: Cable Installation And Connectors
Direct Measuring Mold Cavity Pressure Sensors, Type 6183A… and 6183AC… 4. Cable Installation and Connectors The cables for piezoelectric sensors must be well insulated. Cables and connectors must be installed with good protection to prevent cable damage during installation and in operation. -
Page 14: Single-Wire Clamping Connector Type 1839 And Mounting Plate
Cable Installation and Connectors 4.1.1 Single-Wire Clamping Connector Type 1839 and Mounting Plate Mill a recess for the mounting plate and prepare channel as shown in the drawing. Contact surfaces and threads must be clean and free of grease. Provide radii at transitions and corners in the cable channel or hole, so as to prevent cable damage during assembly and in operation. -

Direct Measuring Mold Cavity Pressure Sensors, Type 6183A… and 6183AC… 4.1.2.2 Recess for 8-Channel Connector Type 1710A... Wherever possible, position the cable channel or cable hole in the middle of the recess to simplify connection of the sensors. When space is limited, the cable entry can be located as required, in which a side entry at the level of the base may be used. -
Page 16: Sensor Installation
Sensor Installation 5. Sensor Installation First install the sensor, then the cable and finally the connector. This sequence is particularly important when installing single-wire sensors, in which the cable in the mold is cut to the required length. All sensor holes and threads must be clean. Use checking tool Art. -
Page 17: Mounting Spacer Sleeve And Support Plate
Direct Measuring Mold Cavity Pressure Sensors, Type 6183A… and 6183AC… 5.1.2 Mounting Spacer Sleeve and Support Plate Insert the machined spacer sleeve and check before assembly that it is not protruding. Allow a clearance of 0,01 ... 0,03 mm so that the sensor is not pressed against the seat. -
Page 18: Cable And Connector
Cable and Connector 6. Cable and Connector The most frequent sensor failures are caused by damage to the cable during installation. It is essential to allow suffi- cient slack when installing the cable and the connector. Edges and transitions should thereby be provided with radii and a sufficient length of cable installed to ensure that it is not under strain. -
Page 19: Cut And Grip Technique
Direct Measuring Mold Cavity Pressure Sensors, Type 6183A… and 6183AC… 6.1.1 Cut and Grip Technique Cut the sensor cable to the required length but do not strip off the insulation. To simplify mold servicing, cut the cable to an adequate length. Slacken the connector at the knurled nut but do not separate it. -

The sensor selector on the sensitivity meter Type 5993A is incorrectly set Sensor with particularly high sensitivity A sensor with too low sensitivity should be sent to Kistler for testing and calibration. The local Kistler distributor will provide further information. -
Page 24: Servicing And Repairs
Servicing and Repairs 9. Servicing and Repairs Quartz crystal pressure sensors are very low maintenance and do not need to be removed for a mold service or cleaning. Nevertheless, it is advisable to test the insulation and sensitivity of the sensor in its measuring position. The connector part must be dry and clean before connection to an external meter. -
