Ceramic durability

By using oxide ceramics, KROHNE employs a technically superior material for electromagnetic flowmeters (EMF) and pressure-measuring devices. This material offers long-term resistance to corrosive and abrasive media and does not leach. Additionally, these ceramics are resistant to temperature shocks and completely safe against gas permeation and leakage – providing a unique combination of properties for high-performance applications across all industrial sectors.
