Monitoring and analysing pressure levels is crucial across many commercial and industrial applications – from hydraulic equipment to combustion engines, to name just a couple.

When it comes to industrial pressure measurement and control, precision is everything.

Two of the most critical components that help maintain optimal system performance are level switches and level transmitters.

Ensuring consistent sensor monitoring in data centres involves treating pressure, level and temperature devices as critical components of their overall infrastructure.

In UK data centres, running round-the-clock to tight service level agreements (SLAs) and striving for ambitious key performance indicators (KPIs), it’s vital to ensure complete real-time visibility and oversight across power usage, cooling capacity, and leak detection.

There are many different types of pressure switches, sensors, transducers and transmitters. If you’re not familiar with them, or perhaps don’t work in an industry where they aren’t commonly used, then you’d be forgiven for not knowing the difference between them.

The whole team here at Applications Engineering are excited to announce that work has begun on the build for our new office and warehouse in Maresfield.

In November 2018, the Labour Party found that only 4% of London’s high-rise council blocks have fire sprinklers.

In February 2019, spot checks by the London Fire Brigade revealed that only 13% of new tower blocks in London had sprinklers installed.

In response to the tragic Grenfell Tower Fire in London in which 72 people were killed, Scotland will introduce new fire safety measures for high-rise buildings.

The British Automatic Fire Sprinkler Association (BAFSA) are once again offering an inspiring and dynamic programme at their annual fire sprinkler conference, which takes place at the Marriott Forest of Arden on Wednesday 14^th November.

You would be forgiven for thinking I am willing England’s fortunes on in the football World Cup, or even calling out in exasperation over the continuing Brexit debacle.

In our last blog on the recent tower block blaze in Lewisham, which occurred on the anniversary of Grenfell, we mentioned news of the ‘stay put’ policy used on the night of the Grenfell fire.

We would like to wish all of our customers and suppliers a very Merry Christmas, and a happy, healthy and prosperous 2018.

Never happy to rest on our laurels, Applications Engineering have been busy revising our own range of pressure switches and are very happy to announce the launch of the MPA range.
