Valve actuators: Pressure switch combines control and alarm function
Jing Lyu | ApplicationsHydraulic valve actuators require pressure switches for safe operation. In control cabinets, usually two of these measuring instruments are installed. One switch is used to control the pump for the hydraulic pressure, while the second triggers an alarm if the pressure …
Pressure transducer: Digitally connected with EtherCAT®
Fabian Mayer | Pressure, ProductsPressure transducers with EtherCAT ® as the communication protocol continue the digitalisation of the semiconductor industry at the transmitter level. In future, in every production plant, dozens of pressure measuring locations will be equipped with them. Their …
Advantages of in-situ calibration using the example of pressure switches
Jing Lyu | ApplicationsIn-situ calibration of measuring instruments is carried out in numerous industrial processes. The advantages are obvious: The instruments remain installed, so the process does not have to be opened. In this way, plant operators reduce the time and costs involved in …
Injectables: Pressure measurement without risk of contamination
Jing Lyu | ApplicationsInjectables are among the most sensitive products in the pharmaceutical industry. Sterility is essential during production. This is because the active ingredient enters the patient's body directly, bypassing the patient's natural defences. It is therefore important to …
