Pressure Sensor Application - Pressure Verification
From Futek Advanced Sensor Technology, Inc.
 

 

Pressure sensors are used to measure pressure in fluid or gas applications. In this particular example, gas is compressed in the compressor. When the gas is let out it needs to be cooled down since compression of gas usually increases its temperature. The pressure sensor monitors the actual pressure of the air before it gets transferred to the dryer.

Products & Services
Load cells are transducers for force and load measurement, often with mounting packaging.  They are widely used in testing, instrumentation, and as components in larger devices such as scales.
Force and load sensors covers electrical sensing devices used to measure tension, compression, and shear forces.
Traction and tension dynamometers are used to measure force in tension, traction and weighing applications with cables, guy wires and chain.
High performance liquid chromatograph (HPLC) detectors pass a beam of light through a column effluent as the fluid passes through a low-volume flow cell. Variations in light intensity are recorded and a chromatograph is generated.
Fuel cells produce electricity and heat electrochemically by combining oxygen from the air with a fuel, preferably hydrogen, from methanol, natural gas, or petroleum. Reformers are often used in conjunction with fuel cells.
