High-pressure gauges: New standard, DIN 16001, delivers safety
| Christopher Ott | Know-howThe German institute for standardisation (Deutsches Institut für Normung) has opened up new territory: Its DIN 16001 is the world's first standard that deals exclusively with high-pressure gauges. In accordance with the criteria described within it, WIKA is at the …
Measuring instrument combined with telemetry increases the efficiency of the process
| Manuel Schwestka | Know-howThe combination of remote data transmission (telemetry) and measuring instruments with electrical output signal opens up new possibilities to increase the efficiency of the process. One example of this is WIKA´s Cryo Gauge concept. With this, the replenishment for a …
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 …
