The two principal pressure types are gauge (or gage) and absolute pressure. Vacuum is sometimes considered its own pressure type, although it is a negative gauge pressure. Barometric pressure is also used in discussions; it is the atmosphere’s absolute pressure. Differential pressure is also considered a pressure type, being the difference of two separate pressures.

The Pt100 temperature sensors are very common sensors in the process industry. This article discusses many useful and practical things to know about the Pt100 sensors. There’s information on RTD and PRT sensors, different Pt100 mechanical structures, temperature-resistance relationship, temperature coefficients, accuracy classes and on many more RTD Sensors The abbreviation RTD comes from “Resistance […]

Temperature sensor As the name indicates, a temperature sensor is an instrument that can be used to measure temperature. It has an output signal proportional to the applied temperature. When the temperature of the sensor changes, the output will also change accordingly. There are various kinds of temperature sensors that have different output signals. Some […]
