Force measurement system is easy for retrofit
In-process force measurement system includes peak hold feature to allow older PLC systems to stay in synch with high-speed production cycles.
PCBO series 102A and 121A sensors offer intrinsic safety certifications to CSA and ATEX standards, permitting use on machinery operating in hazardous environments.
Applications include monitoring dynamic pressure events such as surges, pulsations, spikes, leak detection, combustor instability and acoustics found in operation of oil and gas well heads, pumps, gas compressors, pipe-lines, reciprocating engines and gas turbines.
Sensors may be used with ICPO signal conditioning and permit use of a variety of inexpensive two-wire cable systems.
The low-impedance signal may be transmitted over long cable distances and sensors may be used in dirty environments with no signal degradation.
PCBO can also assist with providing many other styles of dynamic pressure sensors with hazardous area approvals.
