A growing trend in the industrial vehicles sector is to combine measuring instrumentation. This shift makes sense, as a level sensor combined with a temperature sensor, or a dual pressure–temperature transmitter, can provide more data at a lower cost than single …

How to Prevent False Alarms in Industrial Thermocouples
| Adam DeLancey | TemperatureElectrical temperature measuring instruments have an alarm that warns operators of a malfunction, such as an open circuit. However, loose wires or a broken terminal block can cause the alarm to sound, even though the device itself is fine. To prevent such false alarms, …
For High-Vibration Applications, Use Rugged Pt100 Sensors
| Ravi Jethra | TemperatureTurbines, pumps, and compressors produce significant vibrations, which can lead temperature measurement instruments to give incorrect readings and cause premature sensor failure. Pt100 RTDs can withstand several times more vibration than standard elements, making them …
Overview of Analog and Digital Temperature Transmitters
| Adam DeLancey | TemperatureWIKA offers a wide range of reliable and robust temperature transmitters to convert the input signals from temperature measurement devices, such as RTDs and thermocouples, into digital or analog output signals. Make sure you have the right ones for your specific …
