Advantages of diaphragm pressure gauges (3): Solution for critical media
| Silvia Weber | Know-howDiaphragm pressure gauges are genuine multi-purpose instruments. For example, in processes with critical media, they enable comprehensive possibilities for reliable pressure measurement with long-term stability. Processes with aggressive media require …
Anchor force measurement – a discipline that requires experience
| Matthias Winkel | Applications, Force, Know-howSomewhat less illuminated than the conventional application areas of force measurement, but no less important, is force measurement in the field of geotechnology. Here it depends, to a high degree, on know-how and experience. The term geotechnology combines …
Which are the available configuration levels for pressure sensors?
| Christian Wirl | PressureThe various possible configuration levels for a pressure measurement solution are not defined conceptually in any standard. At WIKA we have chosen the following terminology: A pressure sensor (also pressure transmitter) delivers a standardised, …
Overload safety of Bourdon tube pressure gauges
| Marc Syguda | Know-howThe question occasionally arises, in connection with Bourdon tube pressure gauges, about the overload safety of the instruments. This article deals with exceeding the measuring range by up to 30 %. What happens with the pressure gauge? Does it still indicate precisely …
