Installation Obstacles: Invasive In-Pipe Immersion Sensors When it comes to process piping systems, temperature of in-pipe media is often a necessary measurement – and one that needs to be monitored accurately. Traditionally, in-pipe immersion sensors are used. However, invasive in-pipe immersion sensors are often not ideal for use within process piping systems. Here are 3 considerations to take before installing immersion sensors in process piping systems.

Balls Out Have you ever heard someone use the term ‘balls out’? You know, as in giving it maximum effort or going all out. Have you ever wondered where the term comes from? Well, the truth is it probably doesn’t mean what you think it does. For the origins of the term, we need to go back to the late eighteenth century, when Scottish inventor and mechanical engineer James Watt was looking for a way to automatically regulate the speed of a steam engine.
