Data Logger Uses in Power Conservation In the current climate of increasing fuel and power costs and worries over the environmental impact of burning fossil fuels many organizations are using data logger systems to measure their energy consumption. Pressure Transducer Uses in the Oil and Gas Industry The world wide oil and gas industry uses many types of pressure transducer for measurement and control in processes, drilling and down hole tools. With the need to find oil in less accessible areas the systems used in exploration, drilling and production becomes ever more complex and the use of pressure transducer products is increasing. Ultrasonic Flow Meter – Some Basic Principles Ultrasonic flow meter technology has much improved over the last few years and now forms a viable flow measurement technique compared to other methods such as turbine and electromagnetic type systems. The first Doppler ultrasonic flow meter units became available in the early 70’s. To begin with, as with all new technologies they were not very accurate, difficult to install and costly. Pressure Transducer Applications in the Offshore Oil Industry The world wide offshore oil industry uses many types of pressure transducer for control and measurement in processes, drilling controls and down hole tools. With the need to find oil in more inaccessible places the equipment used in exploration, drilling and production becomes ever more complex and the use of pressure transducer products is on the increase. Data Logger Applications in the Process Engineering Industry In manufacturing facilities and factory processes, the data logger is now in everyday use for measurement and data recording of critical parameters. Pressure Transducer Applications in the Oil and Gas Industry The world wide oil and gas industry uses a wide range of pressure transducer types for measurement and control in processes, drilling controls and down hole tools. With the drive to find oil in more inaccessible places the instrumentation used in exploration, drilling and production becomes ever more complex and the use of pressure transducer sensor products increases. Pressure Transducer Technology – A Basic Introduction A pressure transducer is an electro mechanical sensor which is used to measure the pressure in a process or environment, and provide an electrical signal as an analogue of the measured value. Ultrasonic Flow Meter Installation Tips Consider the medium you are trying to measure with your ultrasonic flow meter. Sewage would obviously require a Doppler ultrasonic flow meter while distilled water requires a time of flight ultrasonic flow meter, however, what about applications that involve a combination of liquids or liquids with small particles? Data Logger Applications in Process Measurement In factory processes, and manufacturing facilities the data logger is now in common use for measurement and data collection of critical parameters. Data Logger Applications in Energy Management In the current climate of rising energy costs and concern over the environmental impact of burning fossil fuels many companies are using data logger systems to assess energy their consumption. Data Logger use In Hospitals Increasingly, in hospitals data logger technology is becoming indispensable for the monitoring and recording a wide range of parameters. Data Logger Use in Environmental Monitoring With worldwide concern about global climate change the use of data logger equipment to monitor a wide range of environmental factors such as temperature, solar radiation, rainfall, and water table levels is becoming increasingly prevalent. Data Logger Applications – Remote Data Logger Systems The data logger has now become the indispensable tool for anyone requiring to monitor and record factory processes or environmental conditions automatically. Data Logger Applications – Temperature Perhaps the most common application for the use of the data logger in the world today is for temperature logging. The temperature data logger is used in factories, offices, hospitals, museums, road transport, and outdoors for environmental monitoring. What is a Data Logger ? A data logger is a solid state device used to measure and record analogue and / or digital inputs from sensors or other instruments.
