Clogging

Particulates, especially sludge, can accumulate inside pressure instruments and render them inoperable. Attaching an isolation ring or diaphragm seal will eliminate particle traps, allowing the instrument to function properly.

Corrosion

Water, sludge and treatment chemicals can erode metal components resulting in instrument failure. Diaphragm seals properly configured with compatible wetted materials will protect instruments from damage due to corrosion.

Overpressure

Pressure line spikes and “water hammer” may introduce pressure beyond the operating range of the instrument and cause damage. Installing pressure limiting valves or using a specific pressure measurement instrument designed for overpressure will help to avoid harm..

Vibration

System machinery can cause vibration, which can result in pressure gauge “pointer flutter” and internal pressure gauge wear. Selecting the right gauge will stabilize the gauge movement and pointer, making it easy to read and protecting it from damage.

Pulsation

In-line pumps cause pulsation in the pressure line, which can cause pointer flutter and internal pressure gauge wear. It can also result in Bourdon tube fatigue or rupture. A throttle device or pulsation damper slows this effect and stabilizes the pointer for easier reading.

Temperature

Pressure media at high temperature will affect the elastic element inside the instrument resulting in decreased accuracy. The addition of capillary or a siphon helps to minimize process temperature effect on the instrument and prevent heat damage.
