Hey all, as title states, is it possible to run the compression test with transducer using the ATS 300psi transducer in place of the WPS, My hunch is no because I cannot custom scale the software. Thanks in advance.
Assuming you can power and ground your pressure transducer, you can create a Custom Probe to allow PicoScope to display pressure units (bar/PSI etc.) to suite the output of your pressure transducer.
We have tested dozens of pressure transducers. if you know the pressure to voltage ratio, you can indeed make a custom probe for any transducer.
Here is the thing though... While you will find this works great for measuring static pressures running compression is a different matter.
All we tested, and I mean all, with the exception of the WPS, were wildly inaccurate under dynamic conditions when pressures change rapidly over wide ranges such as running compression testing. This includes the ATS units. We measured pressures that do not exist using a valid custom probe.
Here are the custom probes for the ATS tranducers. I have them and have no issues using them. I also included an in cyl waveform with a bad lifter that i found, check it out and see for yourself that they perform great.
