Fittings that flake silver are a major concern in ultra-high purity (UHP) processes. That’s why WIKA has developed gall-resistant nuts made of UNS S21800 stainless steel, a chromium–iron alloy with inherent lubricity and self-mating characteristics to reduce the …
Low-level flue gas recovery allows refineries to improve their heaters’ efficiency. However, this process could lead to the condensation of flue gases, and these acidic droplets can corrode equipment. For optimal safety and efficiency, refineries must monitor …
Pressure gauge failure can be attributed to one or more of these eight reasons: mechanical vibration, pulsation, extreme temperature, pressure spikes, overpressure, corrosion, clogging, and mishandling/abuse. Pressure gauges are an integral part of an …
Different situations require different ways of measuring weight. To choose the right load cell for a particular application, users should consider three factors: the environment, the location, and the load itself. From the humble bathroom scale to enormous …
Many factors go into the decision of which industrial pressure gauge to purchase. Asking the “STAMPED” questions regarding Size, Temperature, Application, Media, Pressure, “Ends,” and Delivery time will help buyers determine which gauges are right for their …
