Spanish term

Instrumento de cuadrante

Spanish to English Tech/Engineering Chemistry; Chem Sci/Eng
¡Hola! ¿alguna sugerencia para esta frase? No logro encontrar un término adecuado.

"Se define como “Control de Instrumentos” a un control que se pudiese requerir sobre algún instrumento en particular que no esté siendo usado en el momento, y aplica a instrumentos de cuadrante que midan presión.
Puede darse el caso que, durante una limpieza, algún instrumento de cuadrante se golpee intencionalmente y se considere que podría ser errónea la indicación del mismo".

¡Muchas gracias de antemano!

philgoddard Mar 24, 2022:
Can you explain what it means in Spanish? Does it mean a gauge, ie an instrument with a dial?
I'm assuming "intencionalmente" should be "no intencionalmente".

Measuring instrument

"The term laboratory measuring instruments covers all those electronic products that are used in laboratories to carry out analyses of all kind."

Dial gauge

I think the term is used to distinguish between more "old-fashioned" instruments for measuring pressure, with display on a circular dial - analog display - as opposed to instruments with digital gauge display, which are becoming more and more common, often with data sent to a smart phone or tablet.

Higrómetro de cuadrante que incorpora un cuadrante de 70 mm de diámetro con indicador de áreas codificadas por flechas y colores para mostrar los niveles de humedad, por ejemplo, : seco, moderado y húmedo .
El higrómetro indica el nivel de humedad en el 5 % de las divisiones en un rango de 0 a 100 % de HR.

Un termómetro de cuadrante, también conocido como termómetro lidar de absorción diferencial, es un dispositivo mecánico que utiliza un puntero de metal en una escala circular para indicar las mediciones de temperatura. El dispositivo tiene dos componentes principales; el puntero de metal o aguja y un sensor de temperatura. Estos sensores pueden ser bimetálicos o bimetálicos, llenos de líquido o gas, o basados ​​en tensión de vapor.

Un higrómetro termómetro es un dispositivo que se utiliza para medir tanto la temperatura actual del aire como la humedad relativa en un lugar en particular. La temperatura generalmente se mide en grados Fahrenheit o Celsius, y la unidad puede mostrar la temperatura interior, la temperatura exterior o ambas. La humedad relativa se refiere a qué tan saturado está el aire con vapor de agua, y generalmente se muestra como un porcentaje. Un higrómetro de temperatura suele ser un instrumento de cuadrante o digital.

ETI's 800-125 Dial Room Hygrometer is excellent for any application - use it to monitor humidity in the home, the workplace, industrial applications, greenhouses and anywhere else you can think of. Just unpack, place it down where you want to measure (it can be mounted on a surface with the stand or hung from a shelf on its hook) and it'll constantly show the level of humidity on its needle dial scale.

Dial thermometers use a metal pointer on a circular scale to indicate temperature measurements. They have two main components: the needle and a temperature sensor. The way a dial thermometer works depends on the type of thermometer it is. Options include bimetal, liquid or gas-filled and vapor-tension, they are described below.

Try researching 'dial gauges' or 'dial indicator'.

agree philgoddard : These are very useful - I suspected it meant "dial" or "analogue". Are you going to post an answer?

Hi, Phil! No, I'm not going to post an answer as I'm not sure of the best term and I don't have time to properly research the answer.
