Lyth’s journey

Lyth-Instrument Oy began manufacturing pressure gauges in 1943.

Between 1975 and 1979, our production expanded to include pneumatic and hydraulic pressure transmitters, marking a significant step forward toward modern pressure measurement technology used in industrial applications.

In 1985, we delivered the first Lyth pressure transmitters with a 4–20 mA output.

Applications of pressure gauges

A pressure gauge is essential for measuring the pressure of gases or liquids within a container. It works by displaying the force exerted by the substance onto a sensor inside the device. Typical applications include pressure monitoring in systems such as boilers, fuel tanks, medical equipment, and HVAC systems.

It plays a critical role in maintaining optimal performance and preventing overpressure situations that could lead to system failures or accidents. For this reason, pressure gauges are vital for safety, system efficiency, and maintenance across a wide range of industrial and domestic applications.

Frequently Asked Questions

Need more information? Check out our comprehensive list of frequently asked questions to find answers to common questions about our pressure gauge technology and solutions.

What is a pressure transmitter and how does it work?

A pressure transmitter is a device used to measure and transmit pressure readings in industrial applications. It converts applied pressure into an electrical signal that can be transmitted and interpreted by control systems or data acquisition devices.

How can pressure transmitters improve efficiency and reliability in the process industry?

The pressure transmitters are designed with advanced technology and precision to produce accurate and reliable pressure measurements. By providing real-time pressure data, these transmitters help optimize process control, improve operational efficiency, prevent equipment failures, and ensure overall system reliability.

Can pressure transmitters be customized to meet specific industry requirements?

Yes. Different industries have unique requirements, which is why we offer customization options for pressure transmitters according to the specific needs of the industry. In close cooperation with customers, we can design customized solutions that meet the application’s specific parameters, environment and integration requirements.

What are the advantages of pneumatic and hydraulic pressure transmitters compared to traditional pressure gauges?

Pneumatic and hydraulic pressure transmitters offer several advantages compared to traditional pressure gauges. They provide more accurate and reliable measurements, enable remote monitoring and control, offer better compatibility with modern control systems, and enable the integration of additional functions such as diagnostics and digital communication protocols.

Are Lyth’s pressure transmitters compatible with industry standard protocols and communication interfaces?

Yes, Lyth-suomi’s pressure transmitters are designed to be compatible with industry standard protocols and communication interfaces such as HART, Modbus, Profibus and Foundation Fieldbus.

Can Lyth pressure transmitters be used in dangerous or explosive environments?

Yes, Lyth offers pressure transmitters specifically designed for hazardous or explosive environments. These transmitters comply with strict safety standards and certifications such as ATEX and IECEx, ensuring their suitability for use in potentially hazardous environments where the presence of flammable gases, vapors or dust may pose a risk. These specialized pressure transmitters provide accurate measurements while maintaining the required level of safety.
