Pressure sensors
Pressure sensors are used for continuous measurement of the pressure of the working medium in pipelines and process equipment. This is a key element of control, accounting and automation systems.
Main functions:
- Measurement of excess, absolute or differential pressure
- Data transfer to the OQQMS, GFMS, APCS and other systems
- Process control, equipment protection, regulation of medium flows
- Monitoring of operating conditions and alarming of deviations
Types and characteristics:
- Excessive and absolute pressure sensors
- Differential sensors (for measuring pressure differences)
- Housing made of coated aluminum alloy
- Atmospheric pressure: starting with 84.0 to 106.7 kPa
- Output signals: 4–20 mA, HART, Modbus, 0–10 V
Application:
- At oil and gas fields, refineries, gas distribution stations
- As part of the OQQMS, GFMS, WFMU, AGMU, automation systems
- For commercial and process accounting
- In protection, emergency signaling and control systems
Pressure sensors provide accuracy and reliability in monitoring environmental parameters, and contribute to safe and efficient operation of equipment.
