The E-10: Wellhead Pressure Transmitter with Flameproof Enclosure
Robert Lukat | Applications, PressurePlunger lift systems improve and prolong the productivity of natural gas wells by removing the liquid layer that periodically blocks the flowing gas. An explosion-proof pressure transmitter like the E-10 plays an integral role in keeping wells productive and operating …
Instrumentation Solutions for Hydrogen Compressors
Jeff Placek | Applications, Pressure, TemperatureAll types of hydrogen compressors, from piston-type to centrifugal (turbo) compressors, need hydrogen-compatible pressure and temperature instruments with hazardous area approvals and other safety features. More industries and consumers are moving away from fossil …
How Multipoint Thermocouple Arrays in Amine Units Increase Production and Prevent Failures
Robert Torgerson | Applications, TemperatureAmine units are critical to the operations of refineries and chemical plants. If a unit fails due to corrosion, condensation and foaming, or another issue, the entire productivity and safety of the facility is imperiled. Temperature measurement solutions allow …
Hydrogen Fueling Stations Need Specialized Instrument Solutions
Jeff Placek | ApplicationsHydrogen-powered vehicles show promise as a way to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, as refueling takes just a few minutes as opposed to several hours, and the fuel is clean. To make that vision a reality, the world needs more H 2 fueling stations, which rely on …
