Chemical Industry and Seawater Desalination: Why Choose Ceramic Sensors Over Hastelloy?

Ceramic Piezoresistive Pressure Sensor PS100E02 Low Cost

Sensors are used daily in chemical and desalination plants. Such sensors must operate under harsh conditions. They face pressure, chemicals, and saltwater. Over time, these factors can adversely affect some sensor materials. Today, ceramic sensors are used in many harsh environments. They are fairly resistant to saltwater and strong chemicals. Hastelloy is another popular product….

Titanium Alloy vs 316L Stainless Steel Sensors

Flush Pressure Transmitter SS402 New LED display electrical connector Silicone oil-filled, rugged construction

Measuring pressure is a critical task in many industrial systems. These systems use highly precise devices for this purpose, known as pressure transducers. But all of those devices use a miniature flush diaphragm, which is the most important part. It comes into direct contact with water or other harsh liquids. That’s where material selection for…

Standardized Sensors vs. Custom OEM Pressure Sensors

OEM Pressure Sensor SS304 All Stainless Steel Welding Structure

Pressure Sensors are crucial components across various industrial sectors, including industrial equipment, automation systems, medical devices, automotive applications, hydraulic machinery, HVAC systems, and many other products. Choosing the correct pressure sensor ensures timely management and accurate pressure measurements. ​ But most people are confused about the two main types of sensors. They often aren’t sure…

Flush Pressure Sensors for Viscous and Solids-Containing Media

Flush Pressure Transmitter SS402 New LED display electrical connector Silicone oil-filled, rugged construction

Accurate pressure measurements are essential in almost every industry. But conditions vary from one application to another. For example, the food and beverage industry requires accurate pressure measurements along with hygiene. These conditions create greater challenges and can’t be met with conventional pressure sensors. ​ But don’t worry; other options are available, such as Flush…

Why Are 4–20 mA Signals Widely Used in Industrial Pressure Measurement?

4-20mA Differential Pressure Sensor SS309 Accurate Repeatable

Industrial pressure systems require a stable and long-distance signal. This is why many pressure transmitters use a 4–20 mA output [1][2]. The signal is suitable for use in process systems, plants, and factories where electrical noise is present. It also allows systems to detect faults and read the pressure easily [2][3]. A second advantage is…

Why Stainless Steel Pressure Sensors Are a Smart Choice for Industrial Applications

AC Pressure Sensor SS205 All Stainless Steel Structure

Industrial pressure sensors can be used under harsh conditions. They can encounter moisture, chemicals, heat, vibration, and pressure changes. These conditions can cause failure in weak materials and shorten sensor life. Stainless steel pressure sensors are a part of the solution for such severe applications. They are highly resistant to corrosion and damage. They can…

How Deep Can a Submersible Pressure Transmitter Measure?

Submersible Pressure Sensor SS620 IP 68 Protection

Pressure Sensors have been used for a variety of applications with different stress levels, temperatures, and harsh conditions. One of the few applications requires in-depth pressure measurements. For example, pressure measurement is required in wells, boreholes, reservoirs, tanks, rivers, lakes, and wastewater systems.   How deep can submersible pressure sensors go in such applications? It…

Pressure Transmitters vs Pressure Sensors: What’s the Difference?

SS313 Series 2088 Pressure Transmitters

Monitoring pressure inside any system is crucial. If pressure is too high or too low, it can affect the system’s efficiency. To monitor pressure, two important devices used are pressure transmitters and pressure sensors. Interestingly, many misunderstand these devices and consider them the same, which is obviously wrong. There are many differences between transmitters and…

What is the Low-Pressure System?

Low Pressure Sensor SS330

Have you ever wondered what is the Low-pressure system? and how industries detect the smallest pressure changes before they become a bigger issue? Actually, the first small changes in pressure seem very normal. But in many industries and equipment, this change affects the overall system’s reliability. That is why low-pressure measurement is important in many…
