WIKA inline diaphragm seals and flow-through thermowells either reduce or eliminate dead legs where bacterial or fungal contamination can develop in pharmaceutical manufacturing processes. Process engineers know for decades that “dead legs” in piping and …
A major automation solutions provider wanted to update the valve control system it was using in two products in order to get more information and to gain better control. Analysis of the problem during a WIKA Value Innovation Workshop helped develop a proprietary valve …
Absolute 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 …
In 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 …
The varied nature of the liquid waste in sump pits can create difficulties with accurate level measurement . WIKA’s submersible transmitter avoids these problems by measuring the hydrostatic pressure of the liquid in the sump pit. Power plants and refineries, …
