What Is Resistive Pressure Transducer?

Resistive pressure transducers are also called resistance pressure transducers. It is a commonly used pressure sensor. Pressure sensors are generally distinguished by principle: capacitive pressure transmitters, resistive pressure transducers, inductive pressure transmitters, semiconductor pressure transmitters, and pressure transmitters for high-frequency measurement. Among them, resistance pressure transmitters are commonly used.
Resistance strain pressure sensor is a kind of resistance pressure sensor. It measures the pressure value by the resistance change of the strain gauges bonded to the elastic element.

RFQ Pressure Sensors

Resistive Pressure Transducer Working Principle

The functional principle of a resistive pressure transducer is very simple. A pressure sensor converts a mechanical pressure value into a proportional electrical signal. Pressure sensors usually consist of a body and a (thin) diaphragm.

The electrical components of resistance pressure transmitters that feel pressure are generally resistance strain gauges. Resistance strain gauges are sensitive devices that convert the pressure on the measured component into an electrical signal.

The diaphragm is the most important element for pressure measurement and is equipped with strain-sensitive and piezoresistive structures, so-called strain gauges. The diaphragm deflects under pressure.

The most widely used resistance strain gauges are metal resistance strain gauges and semiconductor strain gauges. There are two types of metal resistance strain gauges: filamentary strain gauges and metal foil strain gauges.

Usually, the strain gauge is tightly bonded to the matrix that generates mechanical strain through a special adhesive. When the stress of the matrix changes, the resistance strain gauge also deforms together, which changes the resistance value of the strain gauge. The voltage across the resistor changes.

For example, if a resistor is connected to a Wheatstone measurement bridge, an electrical signal can be measured and transmitted to the indicator.

Types of Pressure Transducers

Let’s talk about the classification of transmitters:

1. According to the working principle of the sensor, it can be divided into resistance, capacitance, inductance, semiconductor, etc.;
2. According to the classification of sensor chips, it can be divided into metal, ceramic, diffused silicon, sapphire, etc.;
3. According to the measurement range, it can be divided into differential pressure, gauge pressure, absolute pressure, high static pressure and differential pressure, etc.;

Resistive pressure transducers are the most widely used transmitters and have the advantages of high cost performance and good linearity characteristics.

Types of Resistance Pressure Transducers

Resistive pressure transducers are generally divided into metal, ceramic, and diffused silicon according to pressure-sensitive components.

The difference between the three:

1. The metal pressure transmitter has poor accuracy, but the temperature effect is small, and it is suitable for fields with a wide temperature range and low accuracy requirements.
2. The accuracy of ceramic pressure sensors is better, but it is greatly affected by temperature. Another advantage of ceramics is impact resistance and corrosion resistance.
3. Diffusion silicon pressure transmitter has high precision and large temperature drift, so it is generally necessary to perform temperature compensation before it can be used. And even after temperature compensation, pressures above 125°C cannot be measured. However, under normal temperature conditions, the sensitivity coefficient of diffused silicon is 5 times that of ceramics. Therefore, it is generally used in the field of high-precision measurement, but the accuracy is low in the micro-range.

Our pressure transmitters can also be upgraded to Low power-battery powered Wireless Pressure Sensors.

Strain Gauge Pressure Transducer Working Principle

The strain gauge pressure transducer works based on the principle of resistance strain effect.

There are two types of resistance strain gauges: metal strain gauges (wire or metal foil) and semiconductor strain gauges. The measured pressure strains the strain gauge.

When the strain gauge produces compressive strain, its resistance decreases. When the strain gauge produces tensile strain, its resistance increases.

The resistance value of the strain gauge changes, and then the corresponding millivolt-level potential output is obtained through the bridge circuit. The measured pressure is displayed by a millivoltmeter or other recording instruments. Thus, a strain gauge pressure gauge is formed.

Strain gauge structure: It consists of three parts: strain sensitive element, substrate and cover layer, and lead wire. Strain-sensitive elements are generally composed of metal wires and metal foils (high resistivity materials), which convert mechanical strain into changes in resistance. The substrate and cover layer serve to fix and protect sensitive components, transmit strain and electrically insulate.

Resistance strain pressure sensor structure: diaphragm type, cylinder type, combined type. Among them, the diaphragm type is suitable for low pressure measurement; the cylinder type is suitable for high pressure measurement.

The working mode of the resistance strain pressure sensor: the change of resistance is converted into the output of current or voltage signal through the unbalanced bridge.

What Is a Fluid Pressure Sensor?

Fluid Pressure Sensors refers to sensors that can be used to measure the pressure of liquid media. Such as measuring pressure of Oil, Fuel and other fluid systems (select a sensor with the appropriate range for your system). Fluid Pressure Sensors are also called liquid pressure sensor or liquid pressure transducer. Fluid Pressure Sensors have important uses. For example, the direct measurement of pressure in a fluid line. For example, put Fluid Pressure Sensors into the liquid, measure the liquid pressure, and estimate the liquid level. For example, by measuring the differential pressure of Fluid, the flow rate of the pipeline can be calculated.

RFQ Pressure Sensors

What is a pressure sensor?

Typically, a pressure sensor (sometimes called a pressure transducer or pressure transmitter) is used to measure the pressure of a fluid (gas or liquid).
Pressure is an expression of the force required to stop a fluid from expanding, and is usually expressed in force per unit area.
Pressure sensors generate electrical signals related to the applied pressure. Such signals are usually digital or analog, but optical, visual and auditory signals are also common.
Industrial pressure sensors, also known as pressure transducers, pressure transmitters, pressure indicators and pressure switches.

How do fluid pressure sensors work?

An instrument for measuring fluid pressure. Usually the measured pressure is compared to a reference pressure (such as atmospheric pressure or other given pressure), thus measuring the relative pressure or pressure difference.

According to the working principle, it can be divided into three types: liquid column, elastic and sensor.

The principle of the pressure sensor is to convert the pressure signal into an electrical signal. Such as strain type, elastic element deformation caused by resistance change. Piezoelectric, the use of piezoelectric effect.

Various pressure sensors can be miniaturized, more accurate and fast to measure, especially to measure dynamic pressure, realize multi-point inspection, signal conversion, long-distance transmission, computer connection, timely processing, etc., so as to develop rapidly and widely used.

Pressure Sensor For Liquid Level Measurement

In physics, the pressure P of a liquid is determined by the relationship: p=pgh.

For the same kind of liquid, the liquid density p is constant. Therefore, the pressure P of the liquid is linearly proportional to the height h of the liquid surface (the height from the liquid surface).

It is not difficult to find that the pressure of the liquid at different heights of the liquid level is also different.

As shown in the figure above, when the pressure sensor is used to measure the liquid level, the pressure sensor is installed at the bottom of the tank. When the liquid level in the tank changes, the height h from the tank bottom to the liquid level also changes at the same time, and the pressure naturally changes accordingly, thus achieving the purpose of continuous measurement.

One of the advantages of using pressure sensors for liquid level measurement is non-contact. Compared with mechanical and static methods, when measuring, it does not require too many parts to contact the liquid, and the installation is relatively convenient.

In addition, in terms of measurement principle, compared with similar non-contact measurement methods such as laser and ultrasonic, the relationship of pressure sensor measurement principle is simpler and linear, and it is more intuitive in data processing, analysis and processing.

fluid depth pressure sensor

If we make the pressure sensor into a submersible sensor, it can be used to measure the depth of the liquid.

The most common fluid depth pressure sensor is what we often call the submersible hydrostatic pressure sensor. Used to measure the depth or level of liquids such as water, fuel.

Hydrostatic level measurement is often used for tank level measurement. Hydrostatic level measurement is one type of continuous level measurement.

Hydrostatic pressure sensors are used to measure the level or fill height of liquids. Hydrostatic pressure measurement is suitable for liquid level measurement due to the static pressure effect of non-flowing fluids. This physical principle describes the effect of the gravity of a stationary (i.e. non-flowing) liquid on the measurement point. This gravity is often described as “hydrostatic pressure”.

Smart Pressure Transmitter Communication Protocol

The intelligent pressure transmitter has three forms: voltage output (usually 0-5V), current output (4-20mA), and digital output. The reliability and stability of smart transmitters are very high, but they often encounter communication problems.

Since there was no unified communication protocol standard in the world when the smart transmitter was born, the communication protocols used by transmitters produced by various manufacturers are not the same.

A typical ST3000 such as Honeywell uses the DE protocol. Fisher-Rosement’s 3051 uses the HART protocol. There are also all-digital smart transmitters that follow the fieldbus communication standard.

HART protocol

The intelligent pressure transmitter HART (Highway Addressable Remote Transducer) is a frequency shift keying (FSK) technology based on the Bell 202 communication standard. Digital communication is realized by superimposing the frequency signal on the 4-20mA current.

2 different frequencies: 1200 Hz and 2200H: representing “0” and “1”, superimposed on the 4-20mA DC signal in the form of a sine wave. Because the average value of these sine waves is zero. Therefore, no DC component is generated. It will not affect the 4~20mA process signal. It completes true synchronous communication without interrupting the transmission signal.

Read more about: Beginner’s guide to HART Communicators-HART Protocol

DE agreement

The DE protocol of the intelligent pressure transmitter represents “1” and “0” by the amount of pulse current. Digital and analog signals are transmitted separately. When transmitting digital signals, analog signals must be interrupted.

HART communication frequency is high (about 1 ~ 2 kHz). The time constant of the network is required to be no greater than 0.65μs. In this way, the maximum capacitance of HART communication equipment and network limits the maximum distance of communication, which is generally not more than 400m.

Fieldbus Communication Protocol

Fieldbus is defined by IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) as “a digital, serial, multi-point communication data bus between field devices installed in manufacturing and process areas and automatic control devices in the control room. bus.”

It is a fully digital, bidirectional, serial, multi-station communication network, and a pair of wires can transmit a variety of information.

smart pressure transmitter selection

The main basis for the selection of pressure/intelligent pressure transmitters:

The property index of the measured medium shall prevail, and the reference shall be to save money and facilitate installation and maintenance.

If the measured medium is high viscosity, easy to crystallize and strong corrosion, the isolation type transmitter must be selected. When choosing, consider the corrosion of its medium to the metal of the diaphragm. Be sure to choose the material of the diaphragm. Otherwise, the outer diaphragm will be corroded in a short time after use. The flange will also be corroded, causing equipment and personal accidents. So the choice of material is very important.

The membrane box materials of the transmitter include ordinary stainless steel, 304 stainless steel, 316L stainless steel, and tantalum membrane box materials. When selecting, the temperature of the measured medium should be considered. If the temperature is high, it is generally

Technical Difficulties in Pressure Measurement at High Temperature

High temperature conditions have certain requirements on the material, process and performance of the pressure transmitter. In order to ensure the measurement of High Temperature Pressure Transducer, we need to pay attention to the following points.

1. Fully welded pressure transmitter.
   All connections between capillaries, transmitters and process connections are of fully welded hermetic construction. to eliminate possible leak points.
2. According to different applications, the amount of filling oil can be precisely controlled.
   According to the user’s application and the characteristics of different filling oils. After careful calculation. Appropriately reduce the amount of filling oil. To compensate for the expansion effect of the filling oil.
   For low temperature applications, the amount of filler oil can be appropriately increased according to the specific application. to compensate for the effect of volume shrinkage of the filler oil.
3. Special oil replenishment and oil discharge treatment.
   The main purpose of oil pretreatment for filler oil is to reduce dissolved gas content.
   And in the process of oil filling, vacuum oil filling is used. And strictly control the oil filling amount when the oil reaches the vacuum degree requirement. Guarantee the measurement accuracy of the final product.
4. In modern technological processes, high temperature pressure transmitters often adopt symmetrical designs. Same diaphragm, same capillary length and same oil-filled fluid on both high and low pressure ends.
   It is generally believed that when the effect of temperature change acts on the high and low pressure sides of the transmitter. This effect will be eliminated. The effect of temperature on the diaphragm is generally considered to be the most important cause of temperature drift. In fact, the opposite is true.
   • Using the same length of capillaries on the high and low pressure sides did not improve performance. Instead, it increases the impact of temperature changes on the overall performance of the transmitter.
   • Pressure transmitters are temperature dependent not only by the amount of temperature change of the diaphragm of the base product. The length of the capillary is also an important factor affecting the temperature change of the transmitter. And the hardness is proportional to the length of the capillary.
   • The high and low pressure sides use the same capillary length, which is twice the length of the capillary. This increases the effect of temperature on the overall performance of the transmitter.
   • That is, if the process temperature is 150°C or less and the process conditions allow it. Then remove the high side port capillary and connect directly to the transmitter. The length of the capillary can be shortened. Reduce the impact of temperature changes on transmitter accuracy and response time.

5. Choose according to the chemical properties of the measuring medium.
   • The corrosiveness of the same medium with different concentrations at different temperatures is also different.
   • Diaphragm sealed pressure transmitter, generally the inner diaphragm box is made of stainless steel. Wetted outer capsules are selected according to the characteristics of the medium.
   • At present, the commonly used materials are 316L, Monel, hafnium alloy and Tan diaphragm.
     Consider the housing material of the pressure transmitter according to environmental conditions and economy. Shell materials generally include aluminum alloy and stainless steel. If not in highly corrosive environmental conditions. It is more economical to choose aluminum alloy material.

High Temperature Differential Pressure Transmitter

The high temperature differential pressure transmitter is only an instrument that can be used to measure the differential pressure of the medium under high temperature conditions.

It can work stably at 600℃ ultra-high temperature for a long time. Maintain the same high precision, high reliability and high stability as conventional single crystal silicon transmitters. Cost-effective. These three factors are the difficult points of Sino-inst technology research.

The brief principle of remote differential pressure transmitter for measuring 600℃-800℃ ultra-high temperature medium pressure is as follows:

The outer end faces of the connecting flange and the isolation flange are welded with the measuring diaphragm (meeting the requirements of the diaphragm’s resistance to medium corrosion) and the isolation diaphragm (conventional 316L diaphragm).

The heat sink is welded between the connection flange and the isolation flange, and then the ultra-high temperature resistant high-viscosity high-temperature filling liquid is injected to form an ultra-high temperature filling liquid cavity.

Weld the mating flange on the other end of the spacer flange. Connect capillary and pressure transmitter, differential pressure transmitter. Inject low-viscosity high-temperature filling fluid to form an ordinary high-temperature filling fluid cavity.

When working, the pressure of the ultra-high temperature medium is transmitted to the isolation diaphragm through the ultra-high temperature-resistant high-viscosity high-temperature filling liquid.

Then, the pressure of the ultra-high temperature medium is transmitted to the pressure transmitter and the differential pressure transmitter body through the low-viscosity high-temperature filling liquid in the capillary. Realized pressure transmission and measurement.

With high-temperature isolation and heat dissipation, ultra-high temperatures are not directly transferred to low-viscosity, high-temperature fill fluids. Thereby protecting the high temperature remote pressure transmitter and differential pressure transmitter. The pressure measurement of ultra-high temperature medium is realized.

Especially in the power generation system with molten salt as the heat transfer medium. The molten salt temperature as high as 560°C and the corrosiveness of molten salt have put forward higher requirements for pressure transmitters.

Utilizes a combination of ultra-high temperature silicone oil and an internal isolating diaphragm. The application temperature of the site is greatly increased to about 600 ℃. Greatly expands the application range of ultra-high temperature pressure/differential pressure measurement. It can be widely used in coal chemical industry and solar thermal power generation industry.

The selection ideas and methods of 600°C ultra-high temperature remote pressure transmitter/remote differential pressure transmitter are the same as those of conventional single crystal silicon remote pressure transmitter and remote differential pressure transmitter, and will not be repeated here. .

What Is Static Water Pressure?

Definition of Static Water Pressure: Static Water Pressure refers to the pressure on water when it is stationary or moving in a straight line at a constant speed. Static Water Pressure is also called hydrostatic pressure. In fluid dynamics, many authors use the term static pressure, not just pressure, to avoid ambiguity. In general, however, the word “static” can be discarded, and the pressure in use is the same as the static pressure at a given point in the fluid.

RFQ

How to Calculate static water pressure?

Static Water Pressure Formula

Static Water Pressure or Hydrostatic pressure in a liquid can be calculated as:

p = ρ*g*h

Where:

p = pressure in liquid (N/m2, Pa, lbf/ft2, psf)

ρ = density of liquid (kg/m3, slugs/ft3)

g = acceleration of gravity (9.81 m/s2, 32.17405 ft/s2)

h = height of fluid column – or depth in the fluid where pressure is measured (m, ft)

Static Water Pressure Gauge

In the process of industrial process control and technical measurement, because the elastic sensitive element of the mechanical water pressure gauge (Static Water Pressure Gauge) has the characteristics of high mechanical strength and convenient production, the mechanical water pressure gauge is widely used.

The elastic sensing element in the Static Water Pressure Gauge elastically deforms as the pressure changes. Static Water Pressure Gauge adopts spring tube (Bourdon tube), diaphragm, diaphragm, bellows and other sensitive components and is classified according to this. The measured pressure is generally regarded as relative pressure. Generally, the relative point is selected as atmospheric pressure.

The elastic deformation of the elastic element under the action of medium pressure is amplified by the gear transmission mechanism of the water pressure gauge. The water pressure gauge will display the relative value (high or low) relative to the atmospheric pressure.

The pressure value within the measurement range is displayed by the pointer. The indication range of the dial is generally 270 degrees.

It can be divided into precision water pressure gauge and general water pressure gauge. The measurement accuracy levels of precision water pressure gauges are 0.1, 0.16, 0.25, 0.4 and 0.05 respectively. The measurement accuracy levels of general water pressure gauges are 1.0, 1.6, 2.5 and 4.0 respectively.

You may often hear Hydrostatic Pressure Transmitter or static pressure transmitter. So are they the same? What is their role? Next, the Sino-Inst engineer will take you to take a look.

What Is Static Pressure?

Static pressure refers to the pressure on the surface of an object when it is stationary or moving in a straight line at a constant speed. The unit is pa. Static pressure plus dynamic pressure equals total pressure.

Static pressure pile construction is a pile-driving process in which the pile driver’s own weight and the counterweight on the frame provide reaction force through the pile driving mechanism of the static pile driver to press the pile into the soil. This kind of pile driving method completely avoids the vibration, noise, and pollution caused by hammering pile driving. Therefore, it has the advantages of no noise, no vibration, no impact, no pollution, etc. during construction.

Advantages: no noise, no vibration, no impact
Field: Fluid Dynamics

1. The pressure generated by the fluid when it is at rest.
2. The pressure perpendicular to the direction of fluid movement generated by the fluid when it flows.
3. The gauge pressure value measured in a fluid that is not affected by the flow rate.

What Is Hydrostatic Pressure?

Hydrostatic pressure is the pressure exerted on an object by a homogeneous fluid. This is a kind of Omni-directional force, and it is evenly applied to all parts of the surface of the object. The increase in hydrostatic pressure will reduce the volume of the stressed object, but will not change its shape.

The pressure on the rock deep inside the earth’s crust is similar to this. It comes from the overlying rock layer and is called lithostatic pressure. There is also strong pressurization of the capacity load of water.

Hydrostatic Level Measurement

Hydrostatic level measurement is often used for tank level measurement. Hydrostatic level measurement is one type of continuous level measurement.

Hydrostatic level measurement is based on the principle that the Hydrostatic is proportional to the height of the liquid. Hydrostatic submersible pressure level transmitter is the most commonly used level measurement sensor. Of course, the differential pressure transmitter can also measure the liquid level. A hydrostatic level sensor is a submersible pressure transmitter that has a pressure diaphragm at the end of level probe. A hydrostatic level sensor is a submersible pressure transmitter that has a pressure diaphragm at the end of level probe. This Hydrostatic is caused by the weight of the fluid on top of the transmitter and is used to calculate the level. And the inner side of the diaphragm is vented to atmospheric pressure.

Hydrostatic Level Measurement Calculation

Liquid level sensors based on hydrostatic liquid level measurement usually measure the filling height of the container according to the following principles:

The liquid passes its specific gravity and gravity. The gravity increases with the filling height. This kind of gravity, which increases with the increase of the filling height, is called a liquid column.

So, if a static pressure type liquid level sensor is selected. This transmitter will measure the corresponding height of gravity of the liquid column as the hydrostatic pressure. Based on the measured hydrostatic pressure and product density. Now you can also calculate the filling height of the container.

Static Pressure Effect in Pressure Transmitter

Static pressure is easy to understand. It is the maximum bearable pressure.

For example, the differential pressure range you measure is 0-1KPa. This pressure may be that the pressure on one side is 0. The other side is 1KPA. At this time, the maximum static pressure is 1KPA.

The differential pressure range you measure is 0-1KPa. This pressure may be that the pressure on one side is 10000KPa and the other side is 10001KPA. At this time, the maximum static pressure is 10001KPA.

Although the measuring range is the same. The pressure displayed by the transmitter is the same. But the static pressure value of the two pressure transmitters is completely different. The sensor selected for the transmitter is also different.

The verification of the influence of the static pressure of the pressure transmitter is as follows:

1. Connect the high and low pressure chambers of the transmitter to the atmosphere and measure the lower limit of output.
2. Introduce the static pressure to slowly change from atmospheric pressure to rated working pressure. After stabilizing for 3 minutes, measure the lower limit of output. And calculate the difference of the lower limit of output to atmospheric pressure.
3. Transmitter with adjustable input range. Except for special regulations, the static pressure influence verification should be carried out on the smallest range. After verification, it should be restored to the original range.

Intrinsically safe type is an explosion-proof type of electrical equipment. When purchasing electrical equipment, do you often hear about intrinsic safety? For example, when ordering pressure transmitters or flow meters.

Intrinsically safe instruments are intrinsically safe instruments. Also called safety spark type instrument. It means that the instrument is in the normal state and in the fault state. The sparks generated by the circuit and the system and the temperature reached will not ignite the explosive mixture.

What is intrinsically safe?

Intrinsically safe type is an explosion-proof type of electrical equipment. It limits the electric spark or thermal effect energy that may be generated by the inside of the equipment and the connecting wires exposed to the potentially explosive environment to a level that cannot produce ignition.

ia or ib or ic. ia is the highest and ic is the lowest. See GB3836.4-2010 for details.

By controlling the energy level of the equipment itself, it is lower than the critical condition for igniting explosive gas under normal working or fault conditions. It will not produce sparks or higher than the temperature of igniting explosive gas. It does not need to be shielded or blocked by other means.

By limiting the various parameters of the electrical equipment circuit, or taking protective measures to limit the spark discharge energy and thermal energy of the circuit, so that the electric spark and thermal effects generated under normal operation and specified fault conditions cannot ignite the explosive mixture in the surrounding environment. In this way, electrical explosion-proof is realized. The circuit of this kind of electrical equipment itself has explosion-proof performance. That is to say, it is “essentially” safe. So it is called intrinsically safe. Electrical equipment using intrinsically safe circuits is called intrinsically safe electrical equipment.

Because the circuit of intrinsically safe electrical equipment is inherently safe. The sparks, arcs, and heat generated will not ignite the explosive mixture in the surrounding environment. Therefore, intrinsically safe electrical equipment does not require special explosion-proof enclosures. This can reduce the size of the equipment. Volume and weight. Simplify the structure of the device.

At the same time, the transmission line of intrinsically safe electrical equipment can use glue lines and bare wires. It can save a lot of cables.

Therefore, intrinsically safe electrical equipment has the characteristics of safety and reliability, simple structure, small size, lightweight, low cost, convenient manufacturing, and maintenance, etc. It is an ideal explosion-proof electrical equipment.

However, since the maximum output power of intrinsically safe electrical equipment is about 25W, the range of use is limited.

Intrinsically safe electrical equipment is mainly used in communication, monitoring, signal, and control systems, as well as instruments and meters.

What are the specifications and guidelines for intrinsic safety?

ATEX (Europe)

The European Union Directive 94/9/EC often referred to as ATEX (“Atmospheric Explosion”). It is the main European regulation for protection systems and equipment used in potentially explosive atmospheres.

The purpose is to serve as a unified directive to lay the foundation for the necessary health and safety requirements. Replace existing different national and European legislation.

The directive is mandatory for electrical and electronic equipment sold in Europe on July 1, 2003 and used in environments affected by explosion hazards.

The ATEX directive has now been adopted all over the world.

NEC (United States)

The National Electrical Code (NEC) is the basis for all electrical codes in the United States. NEC 500 and 505 cover the classification of hazardous areas and related product identification.
NEC 500 explained that it is a long-term regulation. It has been adopted all over the world, except in Europe. NEC 505 is similar to ATEX.

Intrinsically safe symbol

After evaluation, each approved intrinsic safety device should meet ATEX and NEC or Factory Manual standards. Through the corresponding grade system, you can know which areas, protection types, gas groups, and temperature grades the instrument has been approved for.

Example: Fluke 707ex conforms to ATEX II 2 G Ex ia IIC T4

Definitions of Hazardous Areas

According to the frequency and duration of the explosive environment, the hazardous area is divided into different areas.
The gas field is divided into three areas: Zone 0, Zone 1, and Zone 2.

The dust site is divided into three areas: Zone 20, Zone 21, and Zone 22:

Intrinsically safe certification

Intrinsically safe explosion-proof certification technology is currently standardized and suitable for zone 0 technology. For automation instruments, the most commonly used explosion-proof types are intrinsically safe, explosion-proof, and increased safety.

However, due to the rapid development of electronic technology and the continuous birth of low-power electronic devices. So that the promotion and application of intrinsically safe explosion-proof technology has a broader space. Especially because the intrinsically safe explosion-proof type is compared with other explosion-proof types. It not only has a simple structure but also has a wide range of applications. It also has the characteristics of easy operation and convenient maintenance. Therefore, this kind of intrinsically safe explosion-proof, which suppresses the ignition source energy as an explosion-proof method, has been accepted by instrument manufacturers and users.

1. Basic principles of intrinsically safe explosion-proof certification technology

Electric sparks and thermal effects are the main sources of ignition that cause explosive hazardous gas explosions. Intrinsic safety is achieved by limiting the energy of two possible ignition sources: electric spark and thermal effects.

Under normal working and fault conditions, when the energy of the electric spark or thermal effect that the meter may produce is less than this energy. It is impossible for the instrument to ignite explosive dangerous gas and cause an explosion.

The principle is to start with limiting energy. Reliably limit the voltage and current in the circuit to an allowable range. In order to ensure that the electric spark and thermal effects generated by the instrument in normal operation or short-circuit and component damage, etc., will not cause the explosion of dangerous gases that may exist around it.

2. Features of intrinsically safe explosion-proof certification technology

Intrinsically safe explosion-proof technology is actually a low-power design technology. Usually, for hydrogen (IIC) environment, the circuit power must be limited to about 1.3w.

It can be seen that intrinsically safe technology can be well applied to industrial automation instruments.

Compared with any other explosion-proof type. The use of intrinsically safe explosion-proof technology can bring the following technical and commercial features to industrial automation instruments:

• No complicated design and manufacturing process is required. A bulky and heavy flameproof enclosure. Therefore, the intrinsically safe instrument has the characteristics of simple structure, small size, light weight and low cost. According to data, the cost ratio of establishing an intrinsically safe and flameproof switch transmission circuit is about 1:4.
• Maintenance, calibration and replacement of some parts of the instrument can be carried out under electrified conditions.
• High safety and reliability. The intrinsically safe instrument will not reduce the safety and reliability of the instrument due to the loss of the fastening bolts or the corrosion of the casing joint surface, scratches and other man-made reasons
• Because intrinsically safe explosion-proof technology is a kind of “weak current” technology. Therefore, the use of intrinsically safe instruments can avoid the occurrence of electric shock accidents of on-site engineering and technical personnel.
• Wide application range. Intrinsically safe technology is the only explosion-proof technology applicable to hazardous locations in Zone 0.
• For simple devices like thermocouples. No special certification is required to access the intrinsically safe explosion-proof system.

In summary, for automated instruments, intrinsically safe explosion-proof technology is an ideal explosion-proof technology. It will also be widely used in the design of Fieldbus intelligent instruments and their systems.
