Most engineers understand the concept of pressure. It’s a force, often measured in pounds, on a specific area. It is commonly listed in pounds per square inch (psi). But there are a variety of ...

Model AST 4200 panel-mount pressure transducers are designed to provide a hermetic seal against the media without the use of adapters. The one-piece bulkhead design of the unit allows mounting through ...

As more and more refrigeration systems incorporate electronic controls into their design, it is becoming increasingly important for technicians to be able to troubleshoot these electronic devices. One ...

A pressure transducer is capable of accurately measuring pressure. It converts applied pressure into an electric signal and can be classified as an active or passive pressure measurement device.

A sensor is a specific type of transducer capable of sensing a physical property of its environment and then reporting that change, typically in the form of an electrical signal. For instance, a ...

The AST5300 wet/wet differential pressure sensor from American Sensor Technologies, Mount Olive, N. J., measures the difference in pressure between two points, and, when used with signal processing, ...

Monitoring the level of liquid can be accomplished through the use of a pressure transducer. The density of the liquid and its height create pressure on the diaphragm of the pressure transducer to ...

Seasons change, and shifting temperatures are in the forecast. Even when it doesn’t feel like much, the expansion of hot air or shrinkage of cold air often impacts tire pressures, which is why you’re ...
