FAQ#111 – Why I cannot read correctly my 4-20mA current loop gauge?
It could be a problem connected to the power supply given by the readout or logger. When the power supply is in the current loop (2-wire gauge) it is necessary to consider the effect of voltage drop across the shunt resistor on the voltage applied to the gauge. For example, suppose a 4-20mA gauge requires […]
FAQ#019 – Which is the difference between HAE (high-air entry) and LAE (low-air entry) filters?
HAE (High air entry) filters are normally used to monitor pore pressure in the clay core dams and saturated low permeability soils. “High air entry” means high-resistance to air entry when the filter is saturated. The surface tension of the water in the very fine porus of the filter prevents entry of air. The HAE […]
Piezometri in titanio
Piezometri in titanio Codici di riferimento: P235TI I piezometri in titanio sono progettati per applicazioni in ambienti acidi o terreni particolarmente aggressivi. La resistenza alla corrosione è permessa da un corpo in titanio, diaframma in ceramica, filtro in polietilene o ceramica e cavo di segnale resistente agli acidi. La robusta uscita da 4-20 mA è […]
