Measurement Technology
Transducers for Pressure and Temperature


The assurance of product quality and reliability is of increasing importance in the plastics extrusion industry. Superior performance is now defined by precise accuracy, extended life, and robust design for challenging environments.

Gneuss Measurement Technology products for polymer processing industries meet the highest requirements. Top quality raw materials, constant and stringent quality control and advanced manufacturing methods mean that our transducers are among the best products on the market.
We take pride in innovation and our philosophy is to exceed our customer’s requirements for advanced, economical, and environmentally friendly technology. The standard Gneuss transducers are compatible – and therefore interchangeable – with standard types. Gneuss offers a "made to measure" service for custom made sensors for many applications with fast lead times.

Pressure Transducers Melt Pressure Transducers
The Gneuss Melt Pressure Transducers operate using the proven strain gauge technology. In addition to the rigid shaft design, transducers are also available with a flexible capillary, with a choice of mercury or mercury - free media. Available with thread size 1/2"20UNF or M18 x 1,5 mm and with 6 or 8 pin connector plug. Accuracy: ≤ 0,5 % of max. scale range.
Temperature Sensors Melt Temperature Sensors
Thanks to their ceramically - insulated measuring tip, the Gneuss Melt Temperature Sensors are particulary suitable for plastic extrusion applications where a high precision measurement is required. The measuring tip is available in lengths of from 0 (flush) to 25 mm in 5 mm steps. The standard design is suitable for up to 390°C, special designs for up to 500°C are available.
Safety Systems
To meet the latest demands on protection against overpressure in accordance with the European Standard prEN 1114-1:2008, the Gneuss measurement technology programme has been extended by the new safety device type EPM. Thanks to this compact system, highest safety requirements on the extruder in the field of protection against overpressure are fulfilled in every respect.
Digital Display Units Digital Display Units
The microprocessor - based Pressure Measurement Amplifiers are available for 19" rack installation. These characterised not only by their user - friendly design but also by their their robustness and durability.
Zubehör Accessories
The insert bushes are manufactured from heat - treated tool steel (42CrMo4) and simplify the fitting of melt pressure or melt temperature sensors. The bore cleaning tool is used to clear the sensor drillings. With the Melt Pressure Transducer Tester, the function of the pressure transducers can be checked and simulated.
Repair Service
Gneuss offers a repair service not only for Gneuss Melt Pressure Transducers, but also for those from other manufacturers. Cost savings of up to 50% on the price of a new transducer are possible. Should the repair be uneconomic, Gneuss will offer an exact equivalent transducer at a special "repair exchange" price.
Compatibility Check
