ABSTRACT:
A high pressure transducer has an H shaped cross-section with a center arm of the H having a top and bottom surface with the top surface of the H accommodating four strain gauges. Two strain gauges are located at the center of the top portion of the center arm of the H and are positive strain gauges, while two strain gauges are located near the periphery of the center arm of the gauge. The bottom surface of the center arm of the gauge has an active area of a smaller diameter than the circular diameter of the center arm portion of the transducer. The smaller active area is surrounded by a thicker stepped area which surrounds an active area on the pressure side of the H shaped member. The surrounding stepped area enables one to position the two negative strain gauges on the opposite surface of the center arm and near the periphery to thereby cause the negative gauges to respond to a negative stresses and therefore to enable one to provide a full Wheatstone bridge which includes the two positive strain gauges located at the center of the center arm of the H and the two negative peripheral gauges.
