2. Description
2.1 Introduction
Measuring chain consisting of a life time optimized
piezoelectric pressure sensor linked by a robust
fluoropolymer cable to a charge amplifier with MIL
connector. The rugged design and high temperature
resistance allows for flush mounting and enables reliable
knock detection. The sensor can be installed either by
using shoulder sealing or front sealing. The good linearity
and stability of the sensors ensures reliable and
repeatable measurements over a long period of time. The
charge amplifier provides a galvanic isolated three wire
type current output.
The integrated charge amplifier provides a current output
signal in a range of 4 20 mA. The sensor has a zero
line of about 6.5 mA (at dynamic pressure 0 bar). The
output is ac-coupled, so static pressure measurements
are not possible.
Type 7614CG1 has a time constant >10 s
and is recommended for medium speed engines.
Type 7614CG2 has a time constant >110s and is
recommended for low speed engines.
All other technical data are identical.

Description

2.3 Working principle
The cylinder pressure is acting on the diaphragm. The
diaphragm converts the pressure in proportional force on
the sensor element. The piezoelectric sensor element
converts the force into a charge. The charge is converted
by a charge amplifier into a current.
The complete measuring chain is designed for easy
operation and very long life time.
The advantage piezoelectric principle is:
Operates safe up to high temperatures and therefore
ideally suited for accurate measurements in harsh
conditions
Very small sensitivity change over temperature range
High stiffness, results in small diaphragm stress
High reproducibility since the piezoelectric constant
of the measuring element is a constant of the
material and does not change over time

3. Installation
3.1 General
The quality of the measurement and the life time
depends very much of a correct mounting.
The mounting hole must be manufactured within the
tolerances
Avoid mounting at the end of long tubes, it creates
pipe ringing and overheating of the sensor
Ideal is a mounting hole in the cylinder head with
about 10 … 15 mm distance from the combustion
chamber
Sensor must be tightened according the mounting
torque of 25 N·m
The cable must not be twisted during installation/
removal of the sensor
If there are any question regarding installation please
contact Kistler.

3.2 Recommended Mounting
Fig. 4a: Mounting bore for conical sealing Fig. 4b: Mounting bore for shoulder sealing
Mounting torque: 25 ±5 N·m Mounting torque: 25 ±5 N·m
3.2.1 Sealing
A leak proof mounting of the sensor is essential to
prevent overheating of the sensor by leaking hot gases.
Good sealing is obtained by
fine-machined sealing surface on the engine (for
surface roughness, flatness and squareness)
all sealing surfaces (on engine and on sensor) must
be clean and free of any burrs (e.g. combustion
residuals, sooth, etc.)
3.2.2 Installing the sensor
Clean all parts and apply a light film of grease to the thread
and the sealing surface. Use high-temperature paste
MoS2 (e.g. Molycote P74 or 1 000) or copper grease.
Insert the sensor into mounting bore with a torque of 25
N·m.
Use a torque wrench for sensor mounting. After installing
the sensor, check if there is no leaking when engine runs
on idle speed.
Installation
7614CG_002-663e-07.22 Page 11
3.2.3 Installing the charge amplifier
Charge amplifier should be fixed with two vibrations
damping clamps as shown in the picture below. Select a
location where the temperature does certainly not exceed
110 °C. Route and fix the integrated cable between
sensor and charge amplifier so it is protected against
mechanical damage. Keep it away from any source of
heat such as the exhaust or hot fuel lines.
Picture shows an example of Charge Amplifier installation
with Stauff’s damping clamps fixed with clamp body with
rubber insert with film hinge. Clamp Assembly order code
is 419 PAR.
Clamp body, order code 4 PAR:
Standard type
Basic Material – Polyamide
Temperature Resistance -40 °C ... +120 °C /
-40 °F ... +248 °F
Rubber insert with film hinge, order code RI 19 (4+4S):
Exact outside diameter D = 19 mm:
Basic Material – Thermoplastic Elastomer (73 Shore-A)
Temperature Resistance -40 °C ... +125 °C /
-40 °F ... +257 °F
Recommended is to use a product that is intended for the
extra vibration/noise reducing installation of pipes and
tubes or the extra gentle installation of hoses and cables.
3.2.4 Cable between charge amplifier and data acquisition unit
We recommend using cable type 1700B69A…, which is
available in different lengths (for more detailed infor-
mation see datasheet of Type 7614CG1/CG2, doc. no.
003-044).
This cable can be made by the user. Use a shielded
cable; otherwise the sensor is not conform with CE rules.
The wiring must be done according to the electric block
diagram shown in chapter 5.2.5

Operation
7614CG_002-663e-07.22 Page 13
4. Operation
After the starting up the engine check for any gas
leakage at once. If there is any gas leaking out, stop the
engine and rectify the mounting to achieve a complete
sealing (see chapter 5).
Warning:
If the sensor is mounted in an indicator valve:
When the engine is operating do not open the
indicator valve for more than one working circle as
otherwise the sensor may be overheated.

Page 14 7614CG_002-663e-07.22
5. Maintenance
After installation, the sensor needs no maintenance. Do
not use a steam or high-pressure cleaner for cleaning
purposes.
Never use wire brushes, screw drivers or any other sharp
pointed instrument for cleaning the diaphragm.
Trouble shooting
7614CG_002-663e-07.22 Page 15
6. Trouble shooting
In case the sensor does not give a proper output signal,
please disconnect the cable for a couple of seconds and
connect it again.
The amplifier works with a so-called time constant to
ensure a reliable signal without drift, because of this time
constant it can happen that the sensor is out of range for
a short while. To overcome this cable should be
disconnected. Otherwise it may take 1 2 minutes until
the signal is within the specified signal range.
6.1 Repair
The sensor cannot be repaired on site. In case of
incorrect functions or broken parts the sensor must be
sent to factory.
