HIGH PRESSURE GAUGE KIT

High Pressure Gauge Kit

When the operating conditions (high pressure, temperature, aggressive environment, risk of explosion) does not allow the use of the "normal" gauge glasses, special high pressure liquid level indicators, characterized by massive construction and using modular elements for viewing (ports) - called high pressure gauges kits.

High pressure gauges kits are components of liquid level indicators designed to operate at high pressures (over 200 bars).They have a modular structure- made up of a number of interconnected viewing ports joined with durable housing.

Individual viewing port has the same construction, In the massive housing, mounted to the gauge body by two or four screws, there is glass, mica shield and a set of seals and springs. A thin sheet of high-quality mica on the inner surface of each port protects the gauge glass from corrosive attack of steam, water and alkalis; however, this protection is not permanent. Continual exposure to high temperature, high pressure water will also corrode the mica shield. The rate at which this corrosion occurs is significantly less than that of glass, and is dependent upon a number of factors.
