🛡️ The Importance of Installing Wind Shields on Differential Pressure Transmitters

Differential pressure transmitters with small measuring ranges are highly sensitive to environmental interference. When installed in wind-exposed areas, strong airflow can create pressure on the negative-pressure port, resulting in inaccurate readings and compromising measurement accuracy. To mitigate the influence of external airflow and environmental fluctuations, it is recommended to install a downward-facing impulse line and

Should Capillaries with Remote Seals Be Insulated? Understanding Temperature Effects on Differential Pressure Measurement

Are you experiencing erratic readings, unexpected zero drift, or sluggish response in your differential pressure transmitters with remote diaphragm seals? These issues often occur when large ambient temperature variations affect the capillaries and their fill fluid. In low temperatures, the fill fluid may thicken or even solidify; in high temperatures, expansion slows down response times
