The Operation of Gages and Switches in Hazardous Environments

In many industrial processes, the materials and the end product or by-products of the process, such as dust or vapors, can create conditions for a hazardous environment. Processes that have potential for hazardous environments include: water treatment, oil drilling, gas and chemical processing, power generation, pharmaceutical, and food manufacturing. The measurement and control of these processes are essential in maintaining optimal conditions of the manufacturing system and preventing catastrophic events.  Continue reading “The Operation of Gages and Switches in Hazardous Environments”

Ask the Expert – Hazardous Area Humidity/Temperature Transmitter

Humidity/ Temperature Transmitter, Series RHP

Question: I have a new project coming up, and I am considering using the Series RHP Humidity/Temperature Transmitters. However, the instrumentation needs to be suitable for use in a hazardous area. Would the Series RHP work, or do you have a different instrument that you would recommend for this application?
