Pressure instruments serve various applications across industries:
Process pressure control:
In many production processes or in CIP/SIP processes, inline pressure sensors ensure that the specified positive or negative pressure values in pipes, tubes, lines, process vessels, storage tanks, bioreactors or other containers is maintained. Pressure transmitters and manometers with switching output can report the deviation to the PLC via an alarm signal, so that an automatic, immediate reaction or protective measure can be triggered.
Hydrostatic level control:
With pressure sensors, the level in containers can be determined and transmitted with the highest precision where other level measurement techniques are not possible or not precise enough due to tank size, design, materials, media or other reasons.
Hydrostatic volume control:
Intelligent pressure sensors with integrated tank linearization can even go one step further: the combination of level, tank geometry, density compensation and temperature compensation allows the volume or mass in pounds, gallons, % to be transmitted directly and with maximum precision at any time and for any medium.
Differential pressure control:
By equipping a pressure sensor with two sensor stems and signal converters the parallel detection of two pressure values is possible. This allows for the precise measurement of the differential pressure in a pressurized vessel and thus at same time both the precise metering of the level and the monitoring of the head pressure in a pressure tank, such as a fermenter tank, a sterile tank or a juice storage tank. This digital measuring system is easy to install, does completely without capillaries, is reliable and safe. It can be used to monitor the risk of contamination due to a drop in pressure or the post-fermentation in juice production.
