Sensor holder for Stirling engine G U11372
Instruction manual
02/11 SD/ALF
1. Description
The sensor holder for the Stirling engine G model
attaches both a relative pressure sensor (U11323)
and a displacement sensor (U11371) to the Stirling
engine (U10050), making it possible to plot a graph
of pressure against volume for the Stirling engine
with the help of the 3B NETlog
TM interface (U11300-
115 or U11300-230).
2. Included
1 Sensor holder
1 String with spring and cap nut
2 Knurled screws M6 x 10
1 Silicone hose, 20 cm
3. Assembly
• Attach the sensor holder to the base plate of the
Stirling engine as illustrated.
Fig. 1 Assembly of sensor holder
• Screw the pressure sensor into place in the bottom
hole of the sensor holder using a knurled screw.
Connect the nozzle marked “+” on the sensor to
the hose nozzle on the working piston using a sili-
cone hose.
