Pressure gauges for pharmaceutical processes: Flush-mounted “dry measurement”
| Silvia Weber | Know-howAre pressure gauges suitable for pharmaceutical processes? Yes, if they are available in a version with flush diaphragm element. There are two advantages for a mechanical pressure measurement with this type of instrument: Diaphragm pressure gauges measure “dry” and …
Finally, a standard for absolute pressure gauges: DIN 16002
| Silvia Weber | Know-howFilling in the gap in standardisation for measuring instruments: For absolute pressure gauges, DIN 16002 has now been published. The model 532.52 instrument family from WIKA conforms to this standard. All versions are already marked with the DIN 16002 inscription. …
Advantages of diaphragm pressure gauges (2): High overload protection
| Silvia Weber | Know-howOverload can quickly expose the limit of any pressure measuring instrument. Diaphragm pressure gauges withstand a significantly higher maximum pressure when compared to instruments with Bourdon tubes. This protection is due to their physical design. A …
Advantages of diaphragm pressure gauges (1): Measurement of low pressures
| Silvia Weber | Know-howDiaphragm pressure gauges are considered as specialists in the process industries. They come into play when Bourdon tube pressure gauges reach the limits of their performance. One of the advantages of diaphragm pressure gauges is the measurement of low pressures. …
