Rail Industry Cost and Energy Savings Found in Alternative Fuels

Locomotives have long been the lifeblood of commerce within a country. These massive machines transport everything from oil, food, clothes, large wind turbine parts, to people. These freight hauling giants require massive engines to make their cross country and regional trips in order to deliver products that consumers depend on every day. 

Industrial pressure transducers are used in a wide variety of applications ranging from HVAC/R compressors, refrigeration and variable speed pumps to hydraulic pressure, oil and water. A transducer can be used anywhere there's a pipeline or chamber, its function is to sense and convert pressures into a proportional electrical output signal that is transmitted to monitoring or control system.
