The International Society of Automation (ISA) and Beamex, will co-host a free web seminar on 2nd October 2014, discussing the fundamentals of pressure instrumentation as well as some of the appropriate methods for calibration. The web seminar, which will be held from noon to 1:30 pm EST, will feature three instrumentation experts: Roy Tomalino, Calibration Engineer at Beamex; Ned Espy, Technical Director at Beamex; and Hunter Vegas, Project Engineering Manager at Wunderlich-Malec.

In a typical process plant, over 60% of instrument applications involve pressure. Pressure instrumentation maintenance is a critical and daily task, yet proper procedures for managing and calibrating these instruments are often overlooked
or not understood.

This webinar is the first of a two-part series, which will cover the principles of pressure instruments and advanced pressure measurement techniques using best practices.

“It is important for every technician to understand the basics of pressure in order to maintain and calibrate their instrumentation properly. Time and time again, I run into technicians that have learned by the ‘school of hard knocks’ or need a refresher on these concepts. They are doing their best with what they know, but have a hard time figuring out the most effective methods. We hope this webinar will help bridge the gap and connect any missing dots," states Espy at Beamex, Inc.

“ISA is proud to co-sponsor this informational web seminar focused on calibration. It’s a hot topic in industry, and one that our members and customers encounter every day,” says Jennifer Infantino, ISA’s Manager of Marketing, Communications, and Corporate Partnerships. “As part of our commitment to our corporate partnerships program, we are pleased to participate in free educational programs featuring resources from our partner companies and other industry leaders.”

Together, the trio of presenters possesses more than 50 years of technical training experience.
