1.) What is the difference between differential pressure and delta pressure?

Differential pressure means difference between high pressure and low pressure. Delta pressure means it is the pressure drop

2.) What is Cryogenic?


Cryogenic means to work in lower temperature range (-50 and below than that)

3.) Why use MMWC unit?

DIFFERENT DEVICES
WHAT ARE PNEUMATIC SYSTEMS USED FOR?
• Coriolis
The pneumatic systems used in the industry are usually driven
by compressed air or compressed inert gases. A centrally • Differential Pressure

motors and other pneumatic devices. • Vortex

DISADVANTAGES OF PNEUMATIC INSTRUMENTS • Magnetic

• Sensitivity to vibration, temperature changes, mounting • Ultrasonic


position and the like affect calibration accuracy to a much
greater extent for pneumatic instruments than electronic • Turbine
instruments.
• Ositive Displacement Meters

ADVANTAGES OF PNEUMATIC INSTRUMENTS

• A decisive advantage is the intrinsic safety of pneumatic field


instruments. Instruments that do not work with electricity can
not generate electrical sparks. This is very important in
“classified” industrial environments where there are gases,
liquids, powders and explosive dusts.

4.) INSTRUCTION LIST (IL) is a low-level language
with functions and variables defined by a simple
list. Program control is done by jump instructions
and sub-routines with optional parameters
5.) SEQUENTIAL FUNCTION CHART (SFC) language is
a method of programming complex control
systems. It uses basic building blocks that run
their own sub-routines. Program files are written
in other programming languages. SFC divides
large and complicated programming tasks into
smaller and more manageable tasks.

conventional method they use two discreet levels for
transmitting the signal from instrument to controller. Logic high
And Logic low.

Relays are used for implement the digital signal transmission.


Recently, different types of digital signals are introduced for
communication between instrument and controller.
