Pressure is a useful measurement and can be used in a variety of applications, such as fuel line and air intake pressure. It can also be used for safety purposes, e.g. overpressure safeguarding and leak detection... You can even use it to measure a flow rate and tank level which is very common for cargo monitoring. Cargo monitoring is a very common use on most vessels. You can even use it to measure a flow rate and tank level which is very common for cargo monitoring.

Pressure Basics

Pressure measurement is a widely used application on board. Pressure measuring techniques can be used to measure not only process or differential pressure but also to calculate level, volume, density or even mass flow in all areas of a process.

The measuring ranges of pressure transmitters start at a few mbar and extend to extreme pressures up to 1,000 bar. The range of pressure sensors can be used on all stages of media, from gas to liquid and even solids if needed.

Different applications require different sensor conditions, ranges and materials. The sensors have different measuring principles as well, often the pressure is converted to some intermediate form, such as displacement, by detecting the amount of deflection on a diaphragm, from this you can calculate the pressure. Other sensors can have a variety of different measurement principles such as bridge transducers (strain-gauge), variable capacitance or the common piezoelectric.

Guidance to the Correct Pressure Sensor

We have been supplying pressure sensors of almost all types for decades, and we know which type of instrument would be most appropriate for your application, based on your requirements to accuracy, conditions where it should be used and what your end-purpose with the sensor is.
