Instrumentation and related general tools are used in a variety of industries to measure, record and control process variables. Common examples include flow meters, temperature sensors, and pressure gauges. Instrumentation tools are essential for ensuring process safety and quality control in many industries.

For example:

• Flow meters are used to measure the rate of fluid flow in a pipe or channel. Common types of flow meters include differential pressure, positive displacement and electromagnetic flow meters.

• Temperature sensors are used to measure the temperature of a process variable, such as the temperature of a liquid or gas.

• Pressure gauges are used to measure the pressure of a process variable, such as the pressure of a gas or liquid.

Instrumentation tools are essential for many industries, including agriculture, HVAC, greenhouse and screen printing.

Tech Instrumentation — Offering General Tools & Instruments for a Variety of Applications.

Tech Instrumentation provides the measuring tools you need for virtually any industry.

Agricultural Instruments
