Analogue vs. Digital Level Sensors: Which to Choose?
When specifying a level sensor, one of the first decisions you’ll face is output type: analogue or digital? Both do the same fundamental job — telling you how much liquid is in a tank, well or channel — but they get the signal to your system in very different ways. Choosing the right one affects […]
How Do I Calibrate a Pressure Sensor? | Step by Step Guide
Pressure sensors are only as good as their calibration. Whether you’re monitoring water depth in a borehole, controlling a process line, or logging tank levels, a well-calibrated sensor is the difference between reliable data and costly guesswork. This guide walks through what calibration actually means, why it matters, and how to do it properly. What […]
Stork SLS-A & SLS-D Replaced by New SLS Submersible Range
At Stork Solutions we’re always looking for ways to give our customers greater flexibility, faster lead times and more consistent quality. As part of that commitment, we’re making an important change to our submersible level sensor line-up.Our legacy SLS-A (Analogue) and SLS-D (Digital, SDI-12) submersible level transmitters are being replaced by a new, standardised range:SLS-SA […]
What Is a Pressure Transducer? Sensor vs Transmitter Explained
If you are researching industrial instrumentation, you will often see the terms pressure sensor, pressure transducer and pressure transmitter used interchangeably. While they are closely related, they do not always mean exactly the same thing.Understanding the difference matters when specifying equipment for an OEM machine, water network, test rig, hydraulic system, remote telemetry installation or […]
Why Pressure & Temperature Sensors Are Important in Motorsport
In motorsport, every fraction of a second matters. Engine performance, tyre behaviour, braking consistency and drivetrain reliability all depend on systems operating within a controlled window. That is why pressure and temperature sensors in motorsport are so important.These sensors give engineers real-time data from the vehicle, allowing them to identify problems early, understand how components […]
What Does a Pressure Sensor Do? A Complete Guide to How Pressure Sensors Work, Types and Applications
If you’ve ever wondered what does a pressure sensor do, the short answer is this: a pressure sensor measures the pressure of a liquid or gas and converts that measurement into an electrical signal a control system can read and act on. That single job, turning invisible force into usable data, is what keeps water […]
Hygienic Pressure Transmitters for Food & Beverage
Food and beverage production is one of the most demanding environments for pressure instrumentation. Every sensor on the line has to deliver accurate, repeatable measurement and survive aggressive CIP and SIP cleaning cycles, avoid harbouring bacteria, and integrate cleanly into a hygienic process design. There’s no compromise between “measurement” and “hygiene”; both have to be […]
Subsea Pressure & Temperature Transmitters — An Overview of the Stork Range
Subsea is where instrumentation earns its stripes. Crushing hydrostatic pressures, aggressive saltwater, biofouling, and service intervals measured in years rather than months mean that every sensor on the seabed has to be right the first time. Retrieval is expensive, ROV time is expensive, and unplanned downtime on a subsea asset is very expensive. Stork Solutions’ […]
Instrumentation for Water & Wastewater — A Practical Buyer’s Guide
Water and wastewater is one of the most demanding environments in process instrumentation. Sensors sit in boreholes, wet wells, chemical dosing lines, digesters and open channels, often for years, often unattended, often in conditions that quietly destroy anything not specified properly. Getting the instrumentation right the first time saves budget, downtime and a lot of […]
Precision Under Pressure: A Complete Overview of Stork Solutions’ Oil & Gas Instrumentation
The oil and gas industry doesn’t forgive weak instrumentation. From the crushing pressures of a downhole environment to the salt-laden air of an offshore platform, every sensor is expected to deliver accurate data, every second, without fail. At Stork Solutions, our pressure transmitters and instrumentation systems are engineered for exactly that reality — extreme conditions, […]
