4 Situations that Call for a Pressure Connection with a Flush Diaphragm
Robert Lukat | PressureWhat’s the difference between a pressure sensor with an internal diaphragm and one with a flush diaphragm? And which one should you choose when measuring pressure in your application? This WIKA video explains what situations call for a pressure connection with a …
Absolute Pressure Sensors: How They Work and Why They Are Needed
Robert Lukat | Know-how, PressureAbsolute pressure sensors and gauges produce readings that are not influenced by fluctuating atmospheric pressure. These precision instruments are used in vacuum pumps, meteorology, laboratories, and aviation/aerospace. There are different types of …
The Important Role of Differential Pressure Sensors in Hydroelectric Power Generation
Chad Reinhard | PressureIn hydroelectric power generation, dirt and debris in the intake water can shorten the lifetime of turbine blades. Filters inside intake pipes trap the debris so that only sediment-free water hits the blades. A differential pressure sensor/transducer measures the flow …
Pressure Sensor On-board Diagnostics Save Time and Money
Robert Lukat | PressureA 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 …
