Any info on the wps600 pressure transducer would be appreciated?

Hello, I have have never heard of that one til I googled it and found it in a pico news letter. Hth

Hi there

Its simply a 600 Bar version of the WPS500 with the Industrial test connector oppose to a foster coupling.

It's intention is for more industrial 'Hydraulic Applications' and for plant applications for example testing hydraulic clutch pressures on Tractors as well as stationary units where there's an application such as mining equipment, anywhere there is a need to test hydraulic components which include clutch shift, PTO (power take–off) engagement, valve operation and flow/pressure tests. When combined with the electrical sensors and actuators coverage, this kit allows complete system diagnostics.

Testing Hydraulic Valve units, we wouldn't see any use for it on the Automotive World, its more Commercial, Industrial Applications. its only rated to 600Bar so wouldn't be any good for Automotive Common Rail Diesels. If you don't work on Commercial and Industrial applications id say your wasting your money buying as you will struggle to use this device.

Some OEM's equipment off the top of my head wold be as follows where you could get use from this:-

CNH
Cummins
Volvo Penta
DAF

On Cummins you used to have these test ports on the older Fuel System but now on the ISBe and ISC engines its more electronic so the scope would be more beneficial.

Hope this information helps.

Kind Regards

Thanks, Lee.  I have not heard a thing on this since that Pico Newsletter a year ago talking about it being in beta.  I don't know if it even exists yet.   :-?
