We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "316l Stainless Steel",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Engineeringtalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Pressure sensor suits high purity applications from
American Sensor Technologies, which we summarised at the time by saying "Stainless-steel sensors are free of oil-fill, welds and internal O-rings, all of which eliminate the risk of system contamination in extreme conditions".
A few weeks before,
we featured the news release Metal bellows provide great flexibility from
Abssac: "Abssac's metal bellows provide a hermetic, all-metal pressure barrier and seal that can flex in one or more direction".
In September 2007, we covered the news from American Sensor Technologies
concerning its Model 5000 wet/wet differential pressure sensor
- take a look at Pressure sensor monitors filter cleanliness
which says: "The Model 5000 wet/wet differential pressure sensor can detect the difference between the upstream pressure and the downstream pressure to notify the system when the filter is clogged".
Take a look also at the news release from ABB Automation Tech (Instrumentation + Automation), Pressure transmitters resist corrosion,
as well as Programmable pressure switch activates alarms from Keller UK,
and Flowmeters handle high temperatures from Emerson Process Management.
