Abstract

The article provides information on self-monitoring pneumatic systems. The advantages of the technology, such as overload resistance, are mentioned. Also cited are features of flow sensors which are specifically designed to keep track of pneumatic circuits for inefficiencies and leakage, including filter cartridges that stabilize flow. It stresses the need for engineers to determine the required measuring range before adding sensors to an assembly line.
