PSIglow

Pressure Sensing Glow Plug Adapter

* AutoPSI Sensor integrated into the shell of a customer supplied glow plug (glow plug does not function)

* Guaranteed fit and correct volumetric displacement

* Guaranteed for 2 years or 200 million pressure cycles

* Ideally suited for in-vechicle multi-cylinder engine calibration and mapping

* Available in -TC version with 0.005%/°C thermal coefficient of sensitivity, matching water-cooled sensor performance

* Total accuracy (including non-linearity, hysteresis, thermal shock) as low as ±1%
Integrated signal conditioner

* Suitable for all glow plugs

* Low cost

The PSIglow pressure sensor adapter utilizes a customer supplied glow plug which is modified to accept an AutoPSI pressure sensor. The resulting package has identical displacement characteristics to the original plug and allows for direct pressure readings without any head modifications in Diesel engines. The PSIglow is available in the standard (-S), temperature compensated (-TC), and high-temperature electronics (-HT) variations of the AutoPSI sensor system and provides a low-cost, non-invasive solution for combustion pressure monitoring.
