Pressure Gauge Syphon

The Pressure Gauge Syphon is a critical component designed to protect pressure measuring instruments such as pressure gauges from excessive heating and pressure spikes. Its robust design and versatile application make it an ideal choice for use in industrial environments that experience high temperatures, pressure pulsations, and vibrations.

Specifications:

• Size Options: 3/8″, 1/2″
• Type: U-form, Trumpet-form (Q-form)
• Material Options: Stainless Steel (S.S.304), Mild Steel (M.S.), Galvanized Iron (G.I.)

Key Features:

1. Cooling Element for Protection:

   • Acts as a cooling element to protect pressure gauges from excessive heat generated by liquids, gases, and vapors, preventing damage and ensuring accurate readings.

2. Pressure Spike and Pulsation Protection:

   • Provides a buffer against pressure spikes and pulsations, safeguarding the integrity and longevity of the pressure measuring instruments.

3. Direct Process Connection:

   • Facilitates the direct connection of pressure gauges and can be paired with additional accessories like valves for a more comprehensive pressure measurement system.

4. Compact Design for Vibration Applications:

   • Designed with a compact form that minimizes the impact of vibrations, making it suitable for installation in applications prone to movement or mechanical vibrations.

5. Customizable Hook-Up Options:

   • Allows for customization of connections with valves and pressure gauges, enabling it to adapt to the specific needs of the application.

6. High-Temperature and Pressure Tolerance:

   • Suitable for high-temperature processes, with permissible temperatures up to 550°C (1,022°F).
   • Can withstand pressures up to 420 bar (6,091 psi), making it ideal for high-pressure industrial environments.

7. Condensate Collection:

   • Collects condensate inside the syphon, preventing hot media from entering the pressure measuring instrument and ensuring long-term functionality.

8. Versatile Connection Options:

   • Available with threaded connections in forms A and C or weld-in connections in forms B and D, based on DIN 16282 standards.
   • Standardized syphons with NPT threads or industrial-standard variants are available for versatile installation.

9. Optimized Length for Vibration Minimization:

   • The compact, length-optimized design helps reduce the influence of system vibrations on pressure measurement, ensuring stable and accurate readings.

10. Orientation for Pressure Tapping:

    • U-form and Q-form syphons are designed for horizontal pressure tapping, while trumpet-form syphons are intended for vertical pressure tapping, providing flexibility based on installation requirements.

Additional Recommendations:

• Cooling Separating Liquid:

  • It is advisable to fill the syphon with a cooling separating liquid before commissioning the pressure line to further improve thermal protection.

• Alternative Connecting Pipes:

  • If a syphon is not required for the application, alternative connecting pipes in straight or angular forms (e.g., 90° pipe elbow) can be utilized.

Applications:

The Pressure Gauge Syphon is highly versatile and suited for industrial applications involving high-temperature and high-pressure systems. It is designed to:

• Protect pressure measuring instruments in steam systems, boiler operations, and pneumatic systems.
• Ensure accurate pressure readings by mitigating the impact of vibration, pulsation, and excessive heat.

It is widely used across industries such as power generation, oil and gas, chemical processing, water treatment, and manufacturing.

The Pressure Gauge Syphon offers an effective solution for protecting sensitive pressure measuring instruments in demanding industrial environments. Its high-temperature and high-pressure ratings, combined with its compact, vibration-resistant design, make it an essential accessory for ensuring the longevity and accuracy of pressure gauges in various applications.
