Only WIKA offers a NSF International certified pressure gauge to meet the requirements of the Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA). Although stainless steel was an option, it is expensive, so WIKA engineers crafted a gauge with wetted parts made from lead-free brass that …
Based WIKA Instrument’s analysis of audit data from more than 250 plants, vibration is one of the most common reasons for gauge failure. What are signs of gauge failure? Visible = detached pointer and dust on the inside of the gauge window. Hidden risks = wear …
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has proposed new rules that will boost emissions-control requirements for the 150 active refineries in the United States. Proper instrumentation can help these refineries reduce fugitive emissions and the steep price tag …
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 …
