Differential Pressure Transducers Are Ideal for Monitoring Gas Turbine Air Filters
| Ravi JethraThe air filters of gas turbines at power plants eventually get clogged with particulate matter and sludge, decreasing operating efficiency and power generation. Turbine filters must be monitored for cleaning or replacement as required. An ideal solution is to use a …
Why You Should Switch to a Calorimetric Flow Switch
| Robert LukatWith no moving parts, better precision, and digital or analog output, calorimetric flow switches are better suited than mechanical flow switches for applications with contaminated or aggressive media. A calorimetric flow switch, also known as a thermal flow …
Accuracy in Pressure Sensors for Fluid Level Monitoring
| Robert LukatPressure sensors are commonly used to monitor the fluid levels of tanks in a variety of industries. Lack of accuracy in these pressure measurements can lead to equipment damage, alterations to the process, and other costly consequences, especially when working with …
Frequently Asked Questions about Pressure and the Importance of Absolute Pressure
| Hardy OrzikowskiAnswers to questions about the basics of pressure measurement, including why measuring gauge pressure is fine for most applications but absolute pressure measurement is required in some cases. Pressure is generally defined as a force that acts uniformly over a …
