Cross Reference

What each industry actually measures

A quick way to check whether your application is covered. If the measurement you need is not listed against your industry, it is probably still in the catalogue, just specified through a different family.

Industry Critical measurements Hardest requirement
Automotive Position, pressure, flow, connectivity Surviving weld field and spatter
Food & Beverage Temperature, pressure, level Cleanability and CIP chemistry
Pharmaceuticals Temperature, differential pressure, level Validation documentation
Oil & Gas Pressure, level, signal isolation Hazardous-area certification
Water Treatment Level, flow, pressure Unattended operation and fouling
HVAC Systems Differential pressure, temperature, flow Small signals over long runs
Robotics Position, motion, cable life Mass and flex life on the wrist
Semiconductor Temperature uniformity, flow, nanoposition Drift measured in tenths of a degree
