Abstract
A pressure bar gauge was constructed from beryllium. The active element is a PZT polarized ferroelectric disk. The gauge was subjected to step pressure loading; the time taken for the output signal to increase from 10 to 90% of its final steady value is 0.54 μsec which is substantially faster than any other previously reported for a bar gauge.Keywords
