More Information
Summary:A sensor for measuring gas pressure in a gas turbine engine, The sensor 17 is positioned to receive pressurized gas and measure the pressure. A thermally insulating material 19 mounts the sensor spaced from conductive portions of the engine, A heater 21 is mounted on a plurality of sides of sensor to provide heat A thermal blanket 23 covers the heater to prevent loss of sensor heat.
