Abstract: A mounting assembly for a piezoelectric airblast gage includes a steel insert into which the gage is screwed. The insert is contained within a steel housing to provide a protective enclosure for the piezoelectric gage and its associated electronics. The insert is clamped inside the housing by means of a steel clamping ring which is bolted to the housing. Gaskets surround the insert on all surfaces which might come in contact with the steel housing or clamping ring. Prior to final assembly, the external electronics package for the piezoelectric gage is shock-isolated by filling the cavity beneath the insert with a shock-mitigating substance. Once fully assembly, the top of the insert and the piezoelectric gage are flush with the top of the housing.
