Stellar Technology will have a booth at the Subsea Tie Back Trade Show in New Orleans, March 3-5. We welcome you to visit us at Booth 1811 to discuss a sensor solution for your sensor application. In particular, we'd like to discuss about subsea pressure sensors that can support the new 20,000 psi pressure initiatives for subsea applications. Stellar Technology is an industry leader in the design and manufacturing of pressure sensors, load cells, torque sensors, temperature sensors and displacement sensors for upstream oil/gas applications-subsea, surface and onshore. We will have several products on display, including: PT36XX Subsea Wellbore Pressure/Temperature...

The Mars Science Laboratory (Msl) Entry, Descent And Landing Instrumentation (Medli): Hardware Performance And Data Reconstruction (excerpt from Page 8) The MEADS pressure transducers are manufactured by Stellar Technologies, Inc. and are derivatives of off-the-shelf transducers. They are strain gage-type transducers with a range from 0 to 5 psia, outfitted at the manufacturer with flight electrical connectors, pressure input fittings, and mounting brackets. The transducers are not thermally compensated and they contain no electronics (electronics functions are performed by the SSE.) The transducers were calibrated with the SSE, as a subsystem, in combination with thermal/vacuum qualification at Langley. The calibration coefficients from this testing were then...

Stellar Technology’s Model PT36XX subsea wellbore temperature and pressure transducer delivers long-term performance in the challenging subsea gas and oil exploration environments. It has a total error band of ±1% of full scale output and is created for working pressures to seawater depths to 17,000 ft and 15,000 psi. Both pressure and temperature sensors are located at the flush-end of the wellbore probe, a design feature that alleviates clogging and improves dynamic response. This wellbore sensor includes dual pressure containment rated to 20,000 psi for increased reliability. In addition, the PT36XX is constructed without external load-bearing welds therefore increasing the service life and improving field...
