The Industrial Revolution was underpinned by the fortunes of a few dozen financiers, the blood, sweat and tears of millions of factory workers, and a handful of key technical innovations. One of the key inventions of the mid-19 th century was the Bourdon gauge. …
A number of recent studies have demonstrated that pressure sensor diagnostics in mobile machinery mean less work for field technicians and millions of dollars of cost savings for manufacturers. According to data collected by WIKA from off-road vehicle …
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 …
Are your gauges installed properly? WIKA’s industry experts knows that all too often this isn’t the case. Improperly installed gauges can lead to premature gauge failure and prevent you from troubleshooting issues with equipment or processes. Don’t let this …
Despite the fact that pressure sensors are available in many different pressure ranges today, most pressure sensors failures in the field can be traced to overpressure. Data shows that over 50% of pressure sensors that fail in the field have been subjected to …
