What Are The Types of Pressure Gauges?

Types of Pressure Gauges According to Usage

1. Commercial and Industrial Pressure Gauges – Commercial gauges are general purpose pressure measuring instruments commonly used in Heating Ventilation Air Conditioning (HVAC) and Refrigeration. Industrial pressure gauge is suitable for production processes that would not block the pressure system. Industrial gauges are used in manufacturing industries, OEM applications, hydraulic, water treatment and RO industries.

2. Process Pressure Gauges – In industries where the production process functions under extreme conditions, subjected to vibrations, pressure spikes and a corrosive environment (like in certain areas of petrochemical and other chemical industries), a process pressure gauge can be safely used.

3. Low Pressure Gauges – These are suitable for measurement of liquid and gaseous pressure, provided they don’t obstruct its functioning. Plants construction processes, pneumatic systems and cleanrooms often need low pressure gauges.

4. Seal Gauges – These gauges are designed to seal potential leak paths and are used in variety of industrial applications to meet material compatibility requirements, viscous applications, corrosive chemicals, vibrations, sanitary and pharmaceutical requirements.

5. High Precision Test Gauges – These gauges are well-suited for processes that require precise calibration as in testing laboratories.

6. Duplex Pressure Gauges – These are a type of differential pressure gauge that can function in extreme environments and measure the difference between two applied pressures. This is sometimes required in refrigeration, fuel, chemical and air-handling Industries.

Pressure Transmitter – Types & Accuracy

What is a Pressure Transmitter? Pressure transmitters, also known as pressure transducers, are used in industrial and process applications to measure the pressure of liquids, fluids, and gases in different working equipment. These transmitters are a vital component in process industries, especially the oil & gas industry which deals with a variety of fluids and gases. They are commonly used to create a liquid interface detector to monitor the level of liquid in different connected pipelines of a system. Measurement and maintenance of the pressure level of different components in these industries are vital for their smooth functioning as any variation above or below the prescribed pressure can cause disasters. Pressure transmitters are often used in conjunction with other devices to ensure the proper functioning of any system. These transmitters are made very robust to withstand extreme environment which enhances their applicability in a range of industries. Pressure and Diffe...

What is Thermowell? Thermowell Types & Application

A thermowell is a protection for the temperature sensors in the form of cylindrical shaped pressure-tight fittings. It is used to protect the temperature sensors which are inserted into vessels and pipes for being used in different industrial applications. It is used to create a barrier between the process media and sensing element as the process media can be corrosive and can negatively impact the sensing element. Moreover, it protects the sensing elements from fluid velocity and pressure. Thermowell Types: 1. Threaded Thermowell They are usually used in smaller pipes where the temperature of the non-corrosive fluid is measured. Threaded thermowell is screwed in the pipe for use and generally does not require replacements. 2. Flanges Weld Thermowell As the name suggests, flanged thermowell is flanged at the top end. It is connected to the pipe using nuts and bolts. It is mostly used in applications that require frequent replacements and involve high temperatures. 3. Socket Weld...
