Piezoelectric Extending Transducer (D220-H4BR-2513XE) Model:D220-H4BR-2513XE The brass shim reinforcement laminated

The brass shim reinforcement laminated between the two piezoelectric layers is an economical approach to producing a rugged actuator

PSI-5H4E is an industry type 5H (Navy Type VI) piezoceramic

If an electric field is applied which makes the element thinner

It operates over a wide temperature range and is relatively temperature insensitive

This two layer (bi-morph) piezoelectric actuator and sensor is unique to our other products in that each piezo layer is wired out individually to 4 wires

Piezoelectric Extending Transducer (D220-H4BR-2513XE) Model:D220-H4BR-2513XE The brass shim reinforcement laminatedA 2 layer element behaves like a single layer when both layers expand (or contract) together. If an electric field is applied which makes the element thinner, extension along the length and width results. Typically, only motion along one axis is utilized. Extender motion on the order of microns to tens of microns, and force from tens to hundreds of Newtons is typical.
