A wide range of industrial processes would not be possible without the production of various chemicals. Although these processes vary greatly, what they have in common is the demand they place on electronic and mechanical measuring instruments. Many of the chemical compounds used in manufacturing are highly aggressive: acidic, alkaline, corrosive, potentially explosive, etc. The temperatures and pressure are also extreme.

WIKA’s high-quality Bourdon tube pressure gauge has been designed especially for the process industry. The use of high-quality stainless-steel materials and the robust design are geared to applications in the chemical and process engineering industries. Thus, the instrument is suitable for liquid and gaseous media, also in aggressive environments. WIKA manufactures and qualifies the pressure gauge in accordance with the standards EN 837-1 and ASME B40.100. This instrument has as safety function a blow-out device with blow-out plug on the back of the case. In the event of a failure, overpressure can escape there.

WIKA’s Model TG53 bimetal thermometer has been developed and manufactured in accordance with the ASME B40.200 standard. The thermometer provides high quality and performance and is an ideal choice in the process industries. The robust, hermetically sealed case with standard IP66 (NEMA 4X) ingress protection enables use within harsh external conditions. Specifically designed for use in the chemical and petrochemical, oil and gas, power engineering and shipbuilding industries, the TG53 satisfies the rigorous requirements for resistance to aggressive media. As an available option, the case, stem, and process connection can be made from 316 stainless steel. The TG53 offers the widest variety of dampening options in the industry, allowing it to operate in situations where severe vibration conditions exist.
