There are many different PLCs available, and in most cases, plant operators like to stick to one brand or type in particular. However, occasionally an application will arise where the existing PLC is probably not the best control solution available. One such scenario is applications where the PLC is required to handle multiple analogue inputs. For these applications, a Eurotherm E+PLC could be the ideal solution. Eurotherm’s strength with process control is that their standard CPU’s have enough grunt to handle many analogue inputs. The feedback we have received from customers indicates that

ADM is proud to offer the ESI range of digital USB pressure transducers in Australia.The newest model, which was released in June 2017 is the ESI GD4200-USB and ADM is believed to have supplied the very first unit! ESI GD4200-USB Pressure Transducer The GD4200-USB is the GS4200-USB pressure transducer made better! An international motor sports team is using the new ESI GD4200-USB digital pressure sensor to measure pressure in shock absorbers, so that the suspension system can be optimised to the race conditions. The ESI GD4200-USB has a faster response time than the GS4200-USB and has a

Over more than 30 years, ADM has established itself as a reliable supplier of precision test and measurement equipment and instrumentation for process and industrial automation applications. One of our key areas of expertise is Linear Position Measurement and Monitoring Solutions. You may be aware that we offer a considered range of Linear Position Transducers and Sensors. But many people don’t know that ADM offers complete linear position measurement and monitoring solutions. Different linear position measurement applications, require very different solutions. This is why we don’t just offer

The best way to answer this question is by giving you an overview of the wide range of position sensor types and brands that ADM offers to Australian industries. For over 30 years ADM Instrument Engineering has built a solid reputation across Australia as a reliable supplier of precision instrumentation for process and industrial automation applications, including position measurement solutions. Simply put, a position sensor is a device that can detect the movement of an object in a straight line (linear position sensor) or by its angular movement (rotary position sensor). ADM represents 6

Determining the anticipated accuracy of a load cell takes some thought and a variety of factors need to be considered. A Load cell’s %RO accuracy specifications are a great starting point but so are a variety other factors, such as: What indicator is being used? How does that indicator interface with other control systems in the factory? What environment is the load cell installed in and how has it been installed? %RO accuracy specification for a load cell, what does it mean? Most load cell data sheets will specify a %RO, but what is this? The answer: %RO = percent of Rated Output. For example

If you are looking for an inclinometer with a remote display, then ADM has the perfect solution. ADM offers a good range of inclinometers that are suitable for use in many different industrial angle and tilt sensing applications that also need a remote display.

One of the most common elements of process automation and environmental applications, such as hydrographic surveys, is the measurement of the amount of a liquid that may be present.

ADM Instrument Engineering stocks a wide range of load cells and is on hand to offer you expert advice in what type of load cell is best suited to your application. So, what types of load cell are available and what applications are the different types of load cell best suited to? Basically a load cell is a device that measures force. Some can measure a compression force, which is a force pushing down onto the device. Others can measure a tension force, which is a force pulling away from the device. Some load cells can measure both compression and tension forces. Miniature Load Cells Miniature

There are many benefits to using vibration sensors, or accelerometers in condition monitoring applications. Implementing a predictive maintenance program that is based on information taken from vibration monitoring and analysis can greatly increase the reliability and improve the cost effectiveness of your plant. We take a look at how to go about selecting the best vibration sensor or accelerometer for your particular application. Measuring the vibration of machinery is an excellent way of monitoring the health of your critical plant and equipment. Historically, routine maintenance runs would
