Pressure Switch

Thông tin chi tiết

In the modern industrial world, the monitoring and control applied in the system is extremely important. This not only ensures optimal working performance but also plays an essential role in protecting labor safety. Performance measurement equipment, with a variety of types and functions, has become an indispensable tool in many manufacturing, medical and civil industries.

1. Introduction to Pressure Measuring Equipment

- Pressure is a typical physical quantity. This term represents the force acting on a unit area in a direction perpendicular to the surface of the object. Pressure is measured in units such as pascals (Pa), bar, psi, or mmHg, depending on the specific application.
- Pressure measuring equipment is an indispensable tool in measuring and monitoring pressure in systems. They help ensure processes operate consistently and safely. A pressure measuring device is an instrument that measures the pressure of a liquid or gas. There are many different types of pressure measuring devices, each designed for use in specific applications.

2. The importance of pressure measuring equipment

In every industry, from food to pharmaceuticals, from oil and gas to energy, pressure measuring equipment plays an important role in controlling and maintaining stable working pressure. Here are some specific applications for you to easily understand the importance of Pressure Measuring Devices:

Monitor and control the process
Accurate pressure measurement helps ensure that industrial processes proceed safely and efficiently. In the chemical process industry, tight pressure control is important to prevent toxic chemical leaks and ensure product quality. In oil and gas production, pressure monitoring helps prevent oil spills, protect the environment, and ensure employee safety. In the field of power generation, pressure measuring equipment plays a role in controlling steam pressure, ensuring optimal performance of turbines.
Application in the medical industry
Not only limited to industries, pressure measuring devices are also widely used in the medical industry. They are used to monitor and control blood pressure, an important indicator of cardiovascular health. In addition, pressure measuring devices also assist in monitoring and treating other medical conditions such as glaucoma and intracranial pressure, contributing to better health care for patients.
Predict and Prevent incidents
One of the most important benefits of using pressure measuring equipment is the ability to predict and prevent problems before they occur. By continuously monitoring and analyzing pressure data, these devices can help identify abnormalities early, allowing timely corrective measures to be taken. This not only minimizes safety risks but also helps save on maintenance and repair costs.

3. Common types of pressure measuring devices

Pressure Gauges
- Pressure gauges are the most common type of pressure measuring device. They have a dial that displays pressure in psi, bar, or kPa units. Pressure gauges can be used to measure the pressure of liquids and gases in a variety of applications, including plumbing, pneumatic systems, and industrial equipment.
- A pressure gauge is a type of pressure measuring device that uses a liquid column to measure pressure. The commonly used liquid is mercury or water. Pressure is determined by the height of the liquid column. Mercury barometers are used in a variety of applications, including medical, scientific, and meteorological.

Pressure sensors
- A pressure sensor is a type of pressure measuring device that generates an electrical signal proportional to the applied pressure. Pressure sensors are used in a variety of applications, including industrial, medical, and automotive.

Pressure Switches
- A pressure switch is a device that senses the pressure of a liquid or gas and activates an electrical switch when the pressure reaches a preset level. Pressure switches are used in a variety of applications, including industrial, medical and automotive.
- There are two main types of pressure switches:
+ Mechanical pressure switches use a mechanical mechanism to sense pressure and activate an electrical switch. Mechanical pressure switches are relatively simple and inexpensive, but they may not be as accurate and reliable as electronic pressure switches.
+ Electronic pressure switches use electronic sensors to sense pressure and activate the electrical switch. Electronic pressure switches are more accurate and reliable than mechanical pressure switches, but they are also more expensive.

However, the pressure switch only provides information about whether the pressure is above or below a specified level but does not provide an exact value of the pressure level.
Thus, pressure gauges, pressure sensors and pressure switches are all devices used to measure pressure but they have different functions and applications.
Comparison table of the 3 pressure measuring devices mentioned above to give you the best overview:

4. Operating principle of Pressure Measuring Device

- When the pressure in the system increases, it pushes on the pressure sensor, causing this component to contract and convert into an electrical signal. Depending on the type of pressure sensor, this electrical signal can be a voltage, current or frequency value.
- The electronic part in the pressure relay will process this signal and compare it with the set value. If the signal value exceeds the set value, the circuit will be activated to turn on the pressure-related device.
- When the pressure in the system drops. The pressure sensor will open and the electrical signal will decrease or disappear. The circuit will continue to monitor the value of the signal, and activate the circuit. To turn off the pressure-related device if the signal value drops below the set value.

5. Choose the appropriate pressure measuring device

When choosing a pressure measuring device, factors such as:
- Measuring range: Choose a device with a measuring range that matches the application requirements. The device should be able to measure the maximum and minimum pressure required.
- Working environment: If the device will operate in an environment of high humidity, corrosive substances, or extreme temperatures, it is necessary to choose a device that is waterproof, corrosion-resistant, and capable of withstanding high temperatures.
- Required accuracy: Different pressure measuring devices have different levels of accuracy. It is important to choose a device that meets the accuracy requirements for your application.
- Type of pressure to measure: Different pressure measuring devices are designed to measure different types of pressure. Specifically, absolute pressure, gauge pressure and differential pressure. It's important to choose a device designed to measure the type of pressure you need.
