The requirements of the job for pressure and level measuring devices are multifarious and, in addition to intelligent design solutions, require most of all appropriate sensor technology. WHsensors is one of the few companies worldwide using four elements of modern pressure measurement, offering transmitters produced by WHsensors itself or by partner companies with WHsensors's know-how.
Pressure Range
What will be the pressure range?
What will be the units of measurement?
Converting Measurements Into PSI
What is the pressure reference? Local, absolute, sealed or differential?
The pressure at the bottom of the tank or body of liquid is related to the height of the liquid. This level pressure is called hydrostatic pressure or head pressure. Typical units of measure for hydrostatic pressure are inches, feet, or meters of water column.
To begin our investigation of pressure sensors, we first must consider
the physics on which the technology is based.
Pressure is a key factor in almost every fluid-power circuit. Pressure transducers convert fluid pressure to an electrical signal for monitoring and control of pressure in electronic control systems.
Pressure measured above local ambient atmospheric pressure. Sensor has a reference that is exposed to atmosphere.Common applications are Hydraulics, Pneumatics and liquid level.
