Is it necessary to install a pressure gauge on site?
Thread Content
I’d like to ask everyone! Now, the control in production workshops is handled by DCS systems; pressure measurements are generally sent to the DCS via pressure transmitters. As a result, there is little reliance on on-site pressure gauges in workshop production. Is it necessary to install on-site pressure gauges at all?
Yes, aren’t on-site inspections still carried out?
It’s necessary to install them; it’s not possible to install pressure transmitters in every area that needs monitoring, as that would be too costly. Also, remote transmission of pressure data from the site itself is more convenient
Of course it's necessary. The surface can be used as a reference
It must be installed; in case the remote transmission system fails, it will still be possible to monitor things locally
For on-site inspections, remote transmitters also come with local display functions; in the case of comparisons, some devices have multiple meters installed, and comparisons can also be made using the DCS system
There is no absolute rule here; if you think it can be canceled, then it should be. But one thing is certain: it must not affect production and use, nor shall it hinder inspections by safety supervision departments. The rest can be whatever you want. What needs to be reiterated here is that if one is new to the job and encountering these equipment systems for the first time, it’s best to gain a thorough understanding of them first and have some authority to make decisions before discussing such topics; with all due respect. For reference.
When you doubt the accuracy of a gauge, it’s very convenient to have a reference point, especially ones of different types.
Routine comparison testing； In the event of an accident, the mechanical watch provides on-site indication.
On-site instruments are an essential part of the equipment
