A hardness tester is an essential tool in various industries and applications, aiding in determining the hardness of materials. Hardness is a vital material property that reflects its resistance to deformation, wear, and scratching. Different materials require different hardness levels based on their intended use. By measuring hardness, engineers can assess material quality, make informed decisions for material selection, and ensure product reliability. This article explores the diverse applications of hardness testers across different sectors.

An ultrasonic homogenizer is a laboratory instrument used to disperse, homogeneously mix, and process samples. Ultrasonic Homogenizer uses ultrasonic technology to deliver high-frequency sound waves into liquids to create violent oscillations and high shear forces to homogenize and disperse samples. Such instruments are widely used in scientific research, pharmaceutical, food industry, biotechnology, and other fields, ultrasonic homogenizers can efficiently process a wide range of different types of samples.

Lux meter is a widely used instrument in the field of light intensity measurement, its main function is to measure the light intensity on a specific area or surface, thus helping people to better understand and manage the distribution and intensity of light. With the continuous development of science and technology, the lux meter plays an important role in many fields, such as architectural design, lighting engineering, indoor comfort assessment, plant growth research, etc. The unit of illumination is to LUX, with the value of these places to express the appropriate intensity of light to ensure that adapt to a variety of environments daily life, offices, factories, and other environments have their own "suitable illumination". Once the illumination is insufficient or too high, it will be misidentified, operational inefficiency, fatigue, etc., leading to reduced vision, etc. When the illumination is moderate, it can improve work efficiency and ensure operational safety, so it is very important to pay attention to lighting management.

The sound level meter also called the noise meter, is an instrument used to measure the sound pressure level or sound level of sound, is the most basic and most commonly used instrument in acoustic measurements, with the development of the national economy and the improvement of people's material and cultural living standards, noise census and environmental protection work carried out comprehensively.  The machine manufacturing industry has taken the noise as one of the important quality indicators of the product, auditoriums and gymnasiums, and other buildings do not only require the shape of the beautiful but also the pursuit of acoustics, all of which makes the sound level meter is more and more widely used. The buildings such as auditoriums and gymnasiums not only require beautiful shapes but also pursue acoustic effects, which make the application of sound level meters more and more widely.

A pH meter is an instrument used to test the acidity or alkalinity of a solution by measuring the active concentration of hydrogen ions (H+) in an aqueous solution to determine its acidity or alkalinity. A pH meter is a precision electrochemical instrument used to measure the concentration of hydrogen ions in dissolved liquids. It utilizes the physics of the response of an electrode to H+ ions at different temperatures and pressures. The value measured by a pH meter is called the "pH value", which usually ranges from 0 to 14, with smaller values indicating a more acidic pH, and larger values indicating a more alkaline pH.

Pressure gauge refers to the elastic element as the sensitive element, measuring and indicating higher than the ambient pressure of the instrument, the application is extremely common, it is almost all industrial processes and scientific research fields. In the heat pipe network, oil and gas transmission, water supply and gas supply system, vehicle maintenance workshop and other fields can be found everywhere. Especially in the industrial process control and technical measurement process, the mechanical pressure gauge of the elastic sensitive element has high mechanical strength as well as production convenience and other characteristics, so the mechanical pressure gauge has been more and more widely used.

An anemometer is an instrument that measures air velocity. There are many types of it, and the most commonly used one in meteorological stations is the wind cup anemometer, which consists of three parabolic empty cups fixed on the bracket at 120° to each other to form the sensing part, and the concave surfaces of the empty cups are all in one direction. The entire sensing part is installed on a vertical rotating shaft, and under the action of wind force, the wind cup rotates around the rotating shaft at a speed proportional to the wind speed. Next, we will introduce you to the knowledge of anemometer.

A magnetic flow meter is a type of flow meter that measures the flow rate of a liquid or slurry by measuring the voltage generated when the liquid flows through a magnetic field. We should not only know what the electromagnetic type flow meter is, but also have some points to pay attention to when installing it. In the following, we will give you some tips about installing this type of flow meter.

A thickness gauge is an instrument used to measure the thickness of materials and objects. It is often used in industrial production to continuously or sample the thickness of products (such as steel plates, steel strips, films, paper, metal foils, etc.). There are many types of thickness gauges, including coating thickness gauges, radioactive thickness gauges, ultrasonic thickness gauges, eddy current thickness gauges, and thickness gauges that use the principle of mechanical contact measurement.

The push-pull gauge has high resolution and high precision and can see three measurement units of N, Kgf, and LBF at the same time. The push-pull gauge has good operability and cooperates with the test machine. The push-pull force gauge is a mechanical measuring instrument for thrust and pulls tests, and it is widely used in High and low-voltage electrical appliances, electronics, hardware locks, auto parts, pens, light industry, construction, fishing gear, textiles, chemicals, machinery, IT and other industries and scientific research institutions for tension and compression load, insertion force test, destructive test, etc. It is a new generation of digital tension and pressure testing equipment.
