Sensor Drift: Causes, Mechanisms, and Effective Compensation Methods

Sensors /

Introduction Sensor drift refers to the phenomenon where a sensor’s output deviates from the true value over time, even when the input remains constant. It poses a major challenge in industrial measurement and control applications, particularly for pressure, displacement, and temperature sensors. If left uncorrected, sensor drift can degrade system accuracy, lead to false alarms, […]

Differential Pressure Flow Meters: Principles, Installation, and Applications

Flow meter /

1. Principle of Differential Pressure Flow Measurement When a fluid completely fills a pipeline and flows through a primary element (such as an orifice plate or nozzle), a local constriction is created. This results in an increase in velocity and a decrease in static pressure. Consequently, a differential pressure (DP) forms before and after the
