Harsh applications and environments call for equipment that can meet particular demands. For these types of demands required by Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs), Ashcroft is excited to announce the release of the S1 pressure transducer. Designed for large-volume manufacturing, the new Ashcroft S1 is a high-quality pressure transducer at an economical cost that is available with quick lead times. Specially made for applications that include mobile hydraulics, performance racing, agriculture and refrigeration, the S1 is a reliable solution for harsh environments.

Pressure gauges come in a number of different options, including range, materials and size. You can even customize the gauge dial. Different dial sizes can suit your particular application and the location of your pressure gauge. So, what size pressure gauge is best for your application?

When your application involves hazardous locations, it’s important to use instruments that are up to the challenges these applications can offer. In environments with a fire or explosion risk, the wrong pressure instruments can lead to operator injury, equipment damage or worse. How can you avoid these problems?

Cleanrooms, data centers, laboratories, hospital operating rooms, isolation rooms and other critical facilities have strict environmental guidelines requiring close monitoring and control. To ensure that these controlled environments are not compromised, your pressure measuring instruments must be highly accurate, reliable and compliant with these guidelines.

Safety should always be top of mind when it comes to critical process applications. The safety of your operators and your customers is crucial and using high-quality pressure measuring instruments can help you avoid disaster. Analog pressure gauges are an efficient and reliable way to measure pressure in your process. But with so many digital options on the market today, why wouldn’t you want the latest technology and all the bells and whistles that come with it? The answer is: you can have both!

Your pressure sensors are an important part of your application, ensuring accurate and reliable measurements and the safety of your process and its operators. To keep your processes working properly, recalibration of your sensors may be necessary over time. Sensors can degrade over time as components are exposed to wear, temperature and cycling. This can lead to a loss of stability and drift in the output signal of the sensor away from its published specification.
