1. Introduction In industrial equipment selection and procurement, design temperature and process temperature are two concepts often confused.A common question from end users is: “Our process temperature never exceeds 80 °C. Why is the quotation based on 210 °C high-temperature design?” At first glance, this seems like over-engineering. However, the distinction between the two parameters […]

1. Purpose & Scope This document provides a structured, methodical approach to diagnosing faults in industrial instruments and control loops. It is intended for maintenance engineers, instrument technicians, and commissioning teams working on transmitters, indicators, recorders, PLC/RTU I/O, and ancillary devices. 2. Safety & ESD Precautions De-energize circuits whenever practical; apply lock-out/tag-out (LOTO). Verify absence

1. Introduction The accuracy grade of a level meter is one of its most critical performance indicators. It is usually expressed as a percentage relative to the full scale (FS). Due to different measurement principles and application environments, the achievable accuracy varies significantly.This article provides a systematic overview of: General accuracy classification Accuracy characteristics of

1. Introduction In process automation, handheld communicators are essential tools for configuring, calibrating, and diagnosing smart field instruments. Among the most common communication protocols supported by these devices are HART (Highway Addressable Remote Transducer), BRAIN (Bit Rate Adjustable Intelligent Network), and Foundation Fieldbus (FF).Understanding their differences in communication principles, features, and application scenarios is crucial

Abstract The IMA8-EZ02 paperless recorder is a modern data acquisition and visualization platform for process industries. It supports multi-signal inputs (current, voltage, thermocouples, RTDs, resistance, frequency), real-time and historical trending, and secure solid-state storage with USB export. Optional 4–20 mA analog outputs, 24 VDC transmitter power, and serial communications make it easy to integrate with

Executive Summary Main metallurgical difference: 316L has lower carbon (≤0.03%) than 316 (≤0.08%), which reduces sensitization during welding and thermal exposure (≈450–850 °C) and helps prevent intergranular corrosion in the heat-affected zone (HAZ). Strength vs. reliability trade-off: 316 is slightly stronger; 316L offers better weld integrity and cleanliness compliance (sanitary/CIP/SIP). Selection rule of thumb: Welded
