DIFFERENT TYPES OF INDUSTRIAL THERMOMETERS

In most industries, industrial thermometers are used to ensure that processes are monitored and controlled. However, care must be taken in selecting the right thermometer for accuracy and efficiency. There are numerous types of industrial thermometers that are available in the market today. You will have a wide range of selections to choose from. It […]

THE IMPORTANCE AND APPLICATIONS OF PROCESS GAUGES

The process gauges are critical instruments in most of the industries that are in operation today. They are capable of measuring the pressure of different systems accurately. This is important because it allows the operators to make critical decisions that affect the productivity of the industry. To ensure that these decisions are right it is […]

Diaphragm Seal Pressure Gauges

Diaphragm seal pressure gauges What is a diaphragm seal? A diaphragm seal is a stretchy covering that seals and separates an enclosure. The flexible character of this seal enables pressure results to cross the hurdle, but not the objects being contained. General uses for diaphragm seals are to defend pressure gauges from the liquid whose […]

Distinguishing between the Ashcroft Transmitters and Ashcroft Transducers

Transducers are widely used in measuring instruments to convert a signal in one form of energy to another form of energy. The devices that typically make use of ashcroft transducers are the pressure sensors that detect pressure to convert it to electricity that can be displayed in a remote gauge. However, the ashcroft transducers are […]

Why Stainless Steel Gauges are Standard in Most Industrial Applications

Process gauges are designed for different industrial applications with extreme environments to help prevent premature failures that can interrupt production and cause downtime. Stainless steel gauges can deliver the accurate service that will ensure worker safety with the capability to withstand system vibrations, pulsation and shock in extreme environments. There are also industrial applications that […]

The Importance of Compatibility between Tubing and Autoclave Fittings

For a long period of time, threaded pipes have been the most common method of joining and sealing most fluid line systems. Not only are pipes simple to assemble but they are cost effective. On the other hand, pipes have many limitations. They are not bendable except for some specific situations where a direction change […]

Ensuring the Diaphragm Seal Pressure Gauge is Compatible with your Applications

A diaphragm seal pressure gauge makes use of chemical seals that isolate the pressure gauge, switch and transmitter from clogging and/or corrosive media. A standard material that is often used on the diaphragm seals is stainless steel however; other materials like carbon steel can be used based on the specific demands of the industrial application. […]

Ashcroft Pressure Gauges and their Importance to Productivity

Pressure gauges are important indicators whether system or component is functioning properly. It is critical to choose the right kind of ashcroft pressure gauges that cover a varying range of pressure from 01-10 bar, 0-1000 bar, etc. Selection of the right range will accurately report the required working pressure. For example if the ideal pressure […]

Avoiding Corrosion with the Use of Stainless Steel Fittings

Stainless steel fittings are of fundamental importance to many industries due to certain properties of corrosion-resistance and temperature-resistance not to mention its unmatched strength. Stainless steels resistance to corrosion and staining, low maintenance including its familiar luster makes it an ideal material for different applications from coils, tubing, sheets, plates, bars, fittings and wire used […]
