Manufacturing Excellence Since 1931
The summer is always a busy time for our team, as we check and double check the formatting and information of our annual instrumentation catalog. Now that autumn is here, we’re proud to announce that the new Dwyer Catalog is now available! Continue reading “The New Catalog is Available… Get Yours Today!”
The Dwyer team recently released the Series MSX Pro Magnesense® Differential Pressure Transmitter, which meets stringent industry standards with innovative global product design. This series is ideal for monitoring building control applications, and also utilizes enhanced accuracy and stability for use in high performance, critical environments.

The purpose of a healthcare isolation room is to prevent patients with contagious illnesses from spreading to others or to keep immunocompromised patients safe from exposure to airborne pathogens. As such, there exist two types of isolation rooms, either positively or negatively pressurized.
Positive pressure isolation rooms are designed to keep pathogens and outside air from entering the room, i.e. air inside the room is forced outward and is typically used for immunocompromised patients. Like clean rooms, it is important to maintain proper positive pressure within the protective isolation room to keep the patients safe.

Stability is defined as a change (or lack of change) in accuracy over a period of time.
Drift is commonly used as a specification to illustrate the stability, or change in accuracy over a period of time, commonly shown as X%/year where X = a number; i.e. 0.25%/year. In this scenario, a device with a ±1% accuracy, would be expected to have an accuracy of ±1.25% (1%+0.25%) after a period of one year. Depending on the design, brand, and range of the sensing instrument, the stability can vary widely. Continue reading “What is Stability and Why is it Important?”
As the year comes to a close and we celebrate this time with our families and friends, all of us at Dwyer want to give a big thank you to the customers and teammates that we’ve depended on throughout the year. We certainly couldn’t have done it without you.
This year has been unlike any other, to say the least. The COVID-19 pandemic shook the world as hospitals and emergency personnel struggled to keep up with demand for ventilators and isolation rooms. Worldwide manufacturing slowed, as non-essential businesses shut down and companies shifted to CDC guidelines and recommendations. Continue reading “Happy Holidays | Year in Retrospect”
