The previous article in this series discussed loop-powered, or two-wire, devices. These instruments utilize the power supplied to the current loop to power themselves. A two-wire connection may not always be the most optimal power solution because of its inability to power devices that require a large voltage drop. Three and four-wire devices incorporate an […]

Any installer of industrial process control equipment will tell you that ground loops are one of the most frustrating signal connection errors to diagnose and repair. The steps required in order to troubleshoot them are often equated to something as mysterious as magical incantations. Issues caused by shared, non-isolated commons are viewed with a similar […]

The cost of shipping dry bulk materials such as grain, coal or sand can be the most expensive part of a product cost especially when you consider the challenges associated with loading rail cars and trucks. For example, if you fill the car too much, there are considerable safety concerns, delays, and even fines that […]

Measuring instruments must be calibrated regularly to avoid measurement errors and to ensure the safety of production processes and product quality. Labom provides a calibration service either within the factory in Hude or on site. We provide calibration certificates according to EN 10204 3.1. Following variables can be calibrated: Pressure Temperature Current Voltage Resistance Speed […]

High-precision pressure measurement with PASCAL Ci4 and ATC technology (ATC = Active Temperature Compensation) reduces the temperature error by 90% Diaphragm seals are frequently used in the process industry for pressure measurements to protect the measuring device against aggressive media or to create a gap-free process connection. With the help of diaphragm seals, every measurement […]

Based on the parameterisation concept and the design of PASCAL Ci4 pressure transmitter, LABOM has developed a software application optimised for level measurements: LAB4Level. During set-up, input for all key parameters is prompted one by one. Likewise, the teach-in of the tank shape only requires the user to input the current filling volume, or weight, […]

Application: Homogenization is the process of breaking down the fat molecules in milk so that they are all of the same (small) size. That means that milk is pumped at a pressure of 150 to 300 bar on a metal plate. This process finally improves the digestibility of milk. Solution: The diaphragm seal DD8020 is […]

Innovation is a slippery beast. Often disguised in shiny packaging, hidden behind seemingly infinite lists of features, and sold to the public with flashy claims. But consider Albert Einstein’s words that “The only source of knowledge is experience.” Einstein knew—as do you, of course—that all the ashy bells and whistles in the world can’t make […]
