Pressure Transmitter

In field maintenance, engineers often encounter this situation: The zero point cannot be adjusted back to 4 mA The full-scale output cannot reach 20 mA Mid-range readings show serious deviation Many technicians keep trying to adjust zero and span repeatedly. However, once the deviation exceeds the transmitter’s internal adjustment range, calibration will no longer solve […]

In industrial sites, pressure-related issues occur almost every day: Unstable pressure readings Fluctuating or drifting signals Frequent instrument damage Complaints about poor accuracy shortly after commissioning After investigation, the conclusion is often the same: The instrument itself is not defective — the problem started with incorrect selection. This issue is especially common when choosing between

1. Nitrogen-Hydrogen Compressor Stage 3 Outlet Pressure Display is Lower Than the Local Pressure Gauge Fault InspectionThe pressure displayed on the control panel is 0.6 MPa lower than the local pressure gauge. We checked and calibrated both the pressure gauge and the pressure transmitter, and both were accurate. However, the two readings still did not

In industrial settings, there’s a dangerous “knee-jerk” reaction that can be costly: Whenever the pressure transmitter readings fluctuate, technicians often suspect the device is faulty and immediately request a replacement. What happens next? A new transmitter is installed, but within a few days, the same “drift” occurs again. Engineer Li, with years of experience in

Why Some Are Long and Others Are Short?** Differential pressure (DP) flow meters measure flow by detecting the pressure drop created across a primary element—such as an orifice plate, Venturi tube or wedge flow meter.To transmit this pressure difference to the transmitter, two impulse (tapping) lines are installed between the process piping and the DP

Why Instrument Incidents Are Rarely Just Operator Errors In daily instrumentation maintenance, draining and inspection of differential pressure (DP) transmitters are considered routine tasks. In practice, however, improper drain operations continue to cause serious equipment damage—especially in steam service. Recently, a DP transmitter was severely damaged during a drain operation. Similar incidents have occurred before,

Double-flange capsule assemblies are widely used in various industrial applications for precise measurements under complex working conditions. However, their performance can be compromised by damage caused by several factors. This article identifies the common causes of damage and provides detailed countermeasures to ensure optimal functionality and longer service life. 1. Corrosion Cause: Corrosion occurs when

Pressure gauges are essential devices in industrial systems to monitor and manage pressure levels. Among the various types, electric contact pressure gauges and remote transmission pressure gauges stand out due to their unique features and functionalities. Despite their shared purpose of pressure measurement, they differ significantly in their principles, applications, and advantages. Below is a

Pressure is a critical parameter in industrial production processes, influencing both operational efficiency and safety. Accurate pressure measurement and control are essential to ensure smooth production, prevent equipment failure, and maintain workplace safety. This guide provides detailed insights into the significance of pressure measurement and practical recommendations for selecting the most suitable pressure instruments. Importance

In industrial measurement and control, pressure transmitters are everywhere. But in vacuum systems, environmental monitoring, and high-precision applications, you may notice that engineers prefer absolute pressure transmitters instead of the more common gauge pressure transmitters. At first glance, they look similar, but the reference point and measurement logic behind them are fundamentally different: Gauge pressure
