PT-500 Water Well Sensors

The Best Level Sensor For Deep Water Wells

Monitoring water well levels can be challenging, as wells are often in remote areas where power isn’t available. While some wells are only 10 to 60 feet, there are many that are hundreds of feet deep. For water well level monitoring, and especially for the deep wells, we at Automation Products Group, Inc. (APG) recommend […]

How BFSL Relates To Pressure Transducer Accuracy

Accuracy is paramount to the success of a pressure transducer. However, the output of a pressure transducer isn’t linear, meaning the signal deviates from reality by varied amounts across the full measurement span. When graphed, the output looks like a curve rather than a straight line. This behavior is expected. But it can’t get out […]

NLS for Viscous Liquids

How To Measure The Level Of Viscous Liquids

Liquids with high viscosity present a unique challenge to level measurement sensors. While some sensors work just fine, others require a little extra maintenance, and some should simply be avoided. At Automation Products Group, Inc. (APG), we’ve put together a guide on how to measure the level of viscous liquids. What is Viscosity? Viscosity for […]

Load Resistance

Load Resistance and Transmitter Communication

Proper load resistance is important in DC control and communication circuits. Control networks need it to function, and it determines how power is flows within a circuit. Here at Automation Products Group, Inc. (APG), we’ll define load resistance, what it’s for, and how a control network fits into it. Load Resistance Defined At the most […]
