Commissioning a Dynisco Pressure Sensor Using the Dynisco 1490 Panel Indicator
Polymer manufacturing equipment such as extruders and injection molding machines are outfitted with various sensors, which allow the operators to monitor process variables, maintain safety, and avoid downtime and product output.
Dynisco manufactures precise pressure measurement and control devices that allow operators to monitor process variables, maintain safety, and avoid downtime during product output. This video will demonstrate each step of the pressure sensor commissioning process, including unpacking and wiring the sensor and setting parameter requirements for system operation.
For over 60 years, Dynisco has provided precision pressure measurement and control devices for all manner of plastic manufacturing equipment, which end-users rely on.
This video will teach you how to commission a pressure sensor with a Dynisco model 1490 indication device. The technician will offer guidance through each step of the pressure sensor commissioning process, from taking the sensor out of the box to wiring the sensor with the instrument and finally setting the parameter requirements for system operation.
This Video Covers:
- Introduction
- Unpacking and Examining the Pressure Sensor
- Selecting the Cable Assembly
- Unpacking and Wiring the Instrument
- Connecting the Sensor Cable Assembly to the Instrument
- Connecting the Cable Assembly to the Pressure Sensor
- Supplying Power and Setting Parameters on the Instrument
- Calibration of the Pressure Sensor with Instrumentation

Understanding Load Cell Overload
When you're talking about load cells in process weighing, what does safe and ultimate overload mean, and how strong are load cells?
The ultimate strength relates to the function as a load cell and not the mechanical strength. The mechanical strength of the load cell is even higher.
For a load cell, there is generally three capacity limits:
The nominal capacity of one 100%: Let's say we have a 100-pound load cell. This is the limit or capacity of the load cell. Note the load cell should not be subjected to higher forces under regular use. If the application needs to measure higher loads, then a larger load cell should be used.
The safe load usually is 200 percent of the rated capacity: Let's say with the 100-pound load cell this would be 200 pounds. If the load cell is occasionally subjected to more than 100 percent but less than 200 percent, nothing happens to it, and it will work. If repeatedly subjected to more than 100%, the load cell can be damaged due to fatigue.
The ultimate load is usually 300 percent of rated capacity or 300 pounds for a 100-pound load cell. If the load cell is occasionally subjected to a load greater than 200 percent but less than 300 percent, the load cell will be subjected to a zero shift. However, in most cases, the load cell can be recalibrated and repaired. If subjected to more than 300 percent, the bonding of the strain gauges will most likely be damaged beyond repair. The function of the load cell is damaged, and it should be scrapped.
As a reminder, this refers to the function as a load cell and not the mechanical part. The mechanical strength of a load cell varies but is often in the range of 400 to 1 000 percent. It should also be noted that there's a fatigue limit for a load cell that generally is 133 of capacity.
Choose Druck for Supply Chain Confidence
Since the pandemic, supply chain disruptions have posed a significant threat to the global economy. Factory closures and lockdowns in China and several other nations, labor shortages, strong demand for commodities, logistics network disruptions, and capacity limits have resulted in significant delivery times. Manufacturers have had to make tough choices, even relinquishing agency approvals on whole product lines.
Druck maintains regular lead times on pressure instruments and has shortened lead times from 4 weeks down to 3 to meet manufacturers' demands, particularly those facing supply chain disruptions.
According to a poll done by the National Association of Manufacturers, 36% of companies suffer supply chain disruptions, with items arriving late or not at all. Druck works closely with its supply chain to maintain a 3-4 week delivery on the UNIK 5000 series.
As firms look for alternative suppliers, Druck demonstrates their dependability as a domestic pressure instrument supplier, serving critical industries.
