Calibrating Capillary Thermometers

As society and technologies continue to expand, the pressures on our energy infrastructure are rapidly increasing. Take electronic vehicles as one example. While EVs have positive environmental considerations, the need to charge them is brining excess power demands to already stretched power grids. These grids depend on powerful transformers to create the energy, and if …

Shipboard Oil System Temperature Calibration

Maintaining a proper lubrication oil system on maritime vessels is critical to reduce friction on moving parts and avoid overheating. Each ship is different, so that lubrication systems may include any combination of controllers, valves, coolers, transmitters and pumps. No matter what equipment the lubrication oil system contains, it relies on temperature sensors or transducers …

Replacing Outdated Calibration Equipment in Peaking Power Plants

A local peaking power plant with four combustion turbines was looking to replace some older pressure calibrators for their instrumentation and control technicians. These instruments would calibrate gauges, sensors, and transmitters for parameters such as steam pressure, differential pressures for level and flow, fuel pressures and more. The team was looking to replace basic pressure …

Test Gauge Accuracy Explained!

The true accuracy of a pressure gauge under operating conditions can be difficult to determine, in part because manufacturers’ specifications are often very confusing.  One of the major differences between brand names is whether they offer “% of reading” vs. % of full scale (F.S.)” accuracy.  Specifications with % of F.S. are a legacy from …
