Pressure measurement is used to ensure safe operation and enhance performance in the fluid power (hydraulics and pneumatics) and process industries. Selecting the appropriate measuring range to ensure that the sensor is not destroyed by overloading the sensing element …
When choosing a pressure sensor, one of the many factors to consider is its measuring range. Having the optimal range avoids the risk of overpressure without a loss of accuracy or resolution. Pressure sensors play a key role in the safety and efficiency of …
The term “wetted parts” is used in connection with pressure sensors for all those parts, surfaces and/or components that are (potentially) exposed to or in direct contact with the medium under pressure. In case of a typical pressure sensor this is mainly limited to …
Temperature has a major impact on the function and operating lifetime of most electronic devices. This is especially true for electronic pressure sensors. That's why pressure sensor specifications typically include minimum and maximum values for operating, storage, …
Avoiding problems like corrosion or premature failure makes the use of pressure sensors safe and maximizes the lifespan of the product. One of the keys to doing that is to ensure that a pressure sensor's wetted parts – those which come in direct contact with …
