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, …
The 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 …
Pressure sensors can be used to monitor the fluid level of enclosed vessels. Accurate output signals are key to keeping equipment and processes operating safely and efficiently, especially when working with small tanks and low pressure ranges. When an …
