Summary
The properties and advantages of barium titanate transducers for pressure registrations have been described. If the rate of pressure change is less than 10−3 s, a barium titanate transducer with a cathode ray oscilloscope as commonly used is sufficient. Pressure changes with a duration of up to 1 s can be recorded by means of a barium titanate transducer, cathode follower with open grid, and D.C. oscilloscope. This arrangement can be adapted to the registration of processes of even longer duration by a shunt capacity. The sensativity of the transducer used was in the order of 2 V per 1 atm.
