Sensors for Power Generation and Reciprocating Equipment Monitoring Pressure Sensors and Accelerometers for Precision Measurement Requirements PCB® Piezotronics has been involved with the design and manufacture of sensors and associated signal conditioning instrumentation, to address the demanding requirements of the power generation, reciprocating equipment, oil & gas, and petrochemical industries. Whether involved with design evaluations, field testing, compressors, diesel engines, critical component or process monitoring, we can help, with off-the-shelf or custom designed equipment to meet...

Sensors for Power Generation and Reciprocating Equipment Monitoring High Temperature Pressure Sensors for Combustion Instability Measurement In response to market and regulatory requirements, modern power turbine manufacturers have achieved remarkable decreases in emissions. In particular, NOx emissions have been dramatically reduced through new “lean burn” or “dry low NOx” designs. As is typically the case, these advances have come at a price. The low fuel-to-air ratios of these combustors can result in coupled acoustic and heat release pressure oscillations. Even though the magnitude of these...

Sensors for Power Generation and Reciprocating Equipment Monitoring Natural Gas Supply & Petro-Chemical Industry, Hazardous Area Approved Sensors Sensors that offer hazardous area approvals are widely used on gas and oil well heads, supply lines, natural gas power engines, multi-stage gas compressors, and other machinery operating in hazardous environments. Piezoelectric pressure sensors offer the capability to detect and monitor dynamic pressure spikes, pulsations, and surges in gaseous or liquid media. Engine pressure sensors offer walk-around or permanent monitoring capability, allowing engine...
