Overview In pressure vessels, pipeline systems, and high-temperature/high-pressure industrial equipment, flanged connections serve as crucial detachable joints. Bolts play a core role in transferring preload to the gasket, directly impacting sealing performance. Although austenitic stainless steel bolts such as 304 and 316 are sometimes used, many installations report frequent leakage. This document analyzes the reasons […]

Despite the promise of automation, manual interventions and recurring oscillations still haunt many industrial processes. Are these signs of control limitations — or misconceptions about what “automatic” truly means? 👻 The Two Ghosts of Automation: Manual Intervention & Oscillations In the battlefield of industrial control, two persistent “ghosts” continue to challenge engineers and operators alike:

In industrial operations, an excessive maintenance workload for instrumentation equipment is rarely caused by a single issue. Rather, it is the result of multiple interrelated factors—ranging from flawed initial planning to inadequate operational management. Based on common issues observed across various industries, this document categorizes the root causes into six key dimensions: 1. Initial Planning

In the field of industrial instrumentation, it’s common for engineers and suppliers to request detailed parameters for flow and level instruments, but not for pressure and temperature devices. At first glance, this might seem inconsistent—but there are sound technical and practical reasons behind this practice. In this article, we’ll explore why flow and level measurements
