Pushing the boundaries of sensor technology for process measurement

摘要

Charlie Dowling of Morgan Advanced Materials discusses the move away from sensors with moving parts to 'solid state' technology, particularly for operation at high temperatures. Sensors are vital in a wide variety of level and metering applications as they allow the measurement of key attributes such as distance, flow, liquid level and volume. This is often delivered in highly challenging conditions which, depending on the sector and specific application, place specific requirements on the component.
