Explore our CE-certified pressure instruments and bimetal thermometers engineered for peak operational safety in severe environmental conditions.
How modern process industries mitigate severe thermal stress, environmental degradation, and instrument zero-drift across extreme global climates.
In high ambient temperature environments (exceeding +60°C up to +100°C ambient), standard pressure gauges suffer from thermal expansion of internal fill fluids and Bourdon tube metal fatigue. Advanced metallurgical engineering and thermal compensation seals ensure ±0.5% calibration stability without dial distortion or zero-point displacement.
Modern petrochemical, off-shore oil drilling, and power generation plants handle high-temperature corrosive fluids. Utilizing AISI 316L stainless steel, Hastelloy C-276 diaphragms, and specialized capillary cooling siphons allows continuous operation under combined extreme ambient and high process media temperatures.
Under the European Pressure Equipment Directive (PED 2014/68/EU) and ATEX directives for explosive environments, high ambient pressure gauges must undergo strict pressure cycle testing, burst pressure testing (up to 400% of full scale), and IP67 ingress protection verification to guarantee zero leak failure.
