EPRI has released a report chronicling the history and development of Suprock high temperature strain gages in terms of thermal power plant applications. After hitting a limit with interconnect quality of silicon gage technology, new avenues were explored employing novel thin film construction techniques. The resulting gages have been operating successfully in various applications over 2000°F.
