The Do’s and Don’t You Dare’s of a Control Panel

You’ve all seen the commercial where the guy says “We know a thing or two because we’ve seen a thing or two”. Sagacity can relate. We’ve stuck our head into panels that more resemble a rat’s nest than a control panel. We’ve also seen some pretty amazing work as well. Sagacity cannot emphasize enough how important good panel design and assembly is to safety, …

ASME Pressure Vessel and Boiler Code

ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code is a well-established standard in industry. What is the right section to use, and when? The PVBC defines how pressure vessels and their associated piping are to be designed and manufactured taking into consideration operating conditions and other variables. Pressure containing vessels exist in a vast array of industries and applications, so the sizing and manufacturing …

The Flow Experts

Did we mention we have a resident flow expert? We sure do! Our very own Jay Reeder has been finding flow solutions for over 2 decades. It’s been our privilege to work with Jay a few times during our careers. The man simply won’t give up until he’s found the best possible solution to an application. The best part is, if you email us …

Go With The Flow

Just go with the Flow. It’s easy when you have a metal tube rotameter you can trust. The Smart Measurement ALVAMT is such an animal.  If you have a hot liquid or gas service you need flow indication on, but don’t have power nearby, a metal tube VA meter is your answer. Several materials of construction are offered insuring compatibility with your …

Direct Spring-Operated Valves vs. Pilot Operated Valves: What’s the Difference?

Did you know that manufacturing facilities account for 11.39% of the total GDP of the US? If you’re someone who works in industrial applications, you know the importance of optimizing your productivity. You also know the role valves play in machinery operations and manufacturing applications. Here, we’re going to take a look at conventional spring-operated pressure relief valves vs pilot-operated valves. Read …

Bi-Metal Thermometers & Measuring Process Manufacturing

The United States holds a record of 12.69 million jobs in manufacturing. Needless to say, technology and engineering play important roles in the manufacturing process. Making sure your process is performing well and staying safe is even more crucial. How do we make sure everything is working properly? We do so by measuring the process variables of temperature, pressure, level, and flow …
