    Instrumentation 101: Level Monitoring

    Level sensors are among the most varied and technically intricate instruments in process control, used to measure the amount of material—liquid or solid—within a container. Found everywhere from water tanks to industrial silos, level sensors must measure material accurately across varied environments, media types, and design constraints. So when customers need reliable solutions for critical level detection, we’re ready to deliver. With decades of experience and a full suite of sensor technologies—from physical gauges to radar-based systems—we help operators make smarter decisions, safely and efficiently.

    Application Case Study: Level Control in Hydraulic Power Units

    Most of us working in industrial fields are endlessly impressed by large scale fluid applications, especially those that seem too complex or massive to comprehend. Intercontinental pipelines, hydroelectric dams, and municipal water treatment plants are just a few examples that come to mind. As impressive as these monstrous systems can be, there’s ample reason to be equally inspired by applications on the opposite end of the spectrum, where miniscule amounts of fluids can be pumped accurately down to a fraction of a raindrop in volume.

    Instrumentation 101:  Temperature Monitoring

    As with so many modern technology trends, the concept and the reality of cleantech are often two different things. There is ample discussion out in the world about the aspirations of cleantech, but not nearly enough detail on how cleantech principles can be directly applied in practice. This is particularly true in industrial automation and process control arenas, a fact that we here at Whitman Controls see firsthand. From our vantage point, we see ample potential for cleantech-inspired process automation developments in the years to come, starting with applying customized process instrumentation towards cleantech goals.
