FAQ
How does a differential pressure transmitter work?
Differential Pressure transmitters measure the difference between two pressures, usually refers to input pressure and output pressure. They use a reference point called the low-side pressure and compare it to the high-side pressure. Ports in the instrument are marked high-side and low-side.
What is the purpose of differential pressure?
Differential pressure is used to determine if a pipeline or closed containers has any clogs or contaminates as particles flow through orifices and filters. If part of the pipe gets clogged, it will cause a change in the pressure, which causes differential pressure to increase or decrease.
What is the difference between differential pressure and static pressure?
The static pressure is positive when it is higher than atmospheric pressure, and negative when it is lower than atmospheric pressure. Dynamic pressure refers to the pressure generated by the flow of air. As long as the air flow in the duct, it has a certain dynamic pressure, and is positive.
