RTDs (resistance temperature detectors) are the most common, most versatile temperature sensors in industrial and process applications. They are stable, have good repeatability and work well within a wide range of temperatures. The electrical resistance of some …
Managing thermal expansion in liquid level measuring is a common issue in refinery and chemical applications that put level gauges outside the vessel or tank. In this configuration, the gauge is exposed to atmospheric conditions that may affect the temperature of the …
Diaphragm breach: When did that happen? Sanitary industries, such as biotechnical, pharmaceutical, cosmetics, and food and beverage, are highly regulated to make certain processes comply with extremely strict hygienic requirements. To support operations and ensure …
Pressure gauge readings come in a variety of international units. In most of North America, psi (pounds per square inch) is the standard unit of pressure measurement. Industrial processes and scientific laboratories rely on gauges reading in psi to measure relative …
Because even the highest quality instruments eventually fail, process plants typically have redundant measurement devices for mission critical applications such as for process vessels. A dual level gauge, which includes both a magnetic level indicator (MLI) and a …
