Understanding RTD Sensors: Key to Measure Industrial Temperature

“RTD” stands for “resistance temperature detector.” It is a type of temperature sensor. And it uses the electrical resistance of metal to measure temperature. RTDs offer high accuracy and stability. But they are more expensive than other sensors, such as thermocouples. They are widely used in various industries, including automotive, aviation, and food processing. The sensing element of an RTD sensor is typically made of platinum, copper, or nickel. The temperature range is -196°C to 600°C. Some special designs can even reach 1000°C. At Sino-Inst, we primarily offer thr......

High-Temperature Media Pressure Measurement Case: 900-1200°C

A high-temperature pressure sensor is an instrument that accurately measures the pressure of high-temperature media. It converts pressure into an electrical signal and maintains stable operation even at high media temperatures. Industries like steelmaking, chemicals, and petroleum are essential, as a failure could lead to production halts. Therefore, it is crucial. Customized Case Sharing A customer from Kuwait ordered an ultra-high-temperature pressure sensor from us, also known as a water-cooled pressure sensor. The specific specifications are as follows: Ultra-high-temperature pressure sens......

Pressure Switch vs Sensor What You Need to Know

Pressure switches and pressure sensors are both devices used to detect pressure. However, they differ significantly in their functions, operating principles, and application scenarios. Understanding Pressure Switch vs Sensor can help you choose the most suitable product. RFQ First, for us, the main difference between pressure switches and pressure sensors lies in their functions. A pressure sensor converts the pressure of an object into an electrical signal for display and control system connection. This sensor has a continuous output and is typically connected to a controller that monitors an......

Case Study – Liquid Nitrogen Flow Measurement

A circular gear flow transmitter is a positive displacement flow meter designed for high-precision, continuous or intermittent measurement of the volumetric or instantaneous flow rate of liquids in pipelines. It uses a pair of precision-machined cylindrical gears, driven by the fluid, to rotate. The fixed-volume cavity between the gears measures the volume of liquid passing through, making it a positive displacement flow meter. Its wide measurement range and high accuracy meet the requirements of most field conditions. Customized Case Study A customer from the United States wanted to measure t......
