Flush Diaphragm Seal for Pressure Instruments FDS

image-1722305427000.png

Applications

The diaphragm seal is a pressure-transmitting, diaphragm-type device. The pressure signal is sent to the cooperating pressure measuring device (Wireless Pressure Sensor, Pressure Transmitter, Pressure Gauge) through manometric liquid filling the space between the separating diaphragm of the seal and the pressure measuring device. The diaphragm seal's role is to isolate the pressure measuring device from damaging impacts caused by either medium or installation:

Recommendations

The essential metrological problem at diaphragm seal operational use is an absolute thermal zero error, resulting from the
thermal expansion of the manometer liquid. The expansion effect must be compensated for with the separating diaphragm
flexibility.

To minimize this effect, it is advisable to:

Zero error from ambient temperature change

An additional zero error, resulting from temperature fluctuations in a medium, depends on the temperature gradient in the oil-based diaphragm sealing system. The error value is, in any case, significantly smaller than the error value shown in the table.

Applications

The diaphragm seal is a pressure-transmitting, diaphragm-type device. The pressure signal is sent to the cooperating
pressure measuring device (pressure transmitter, pressure gauge) through manometric liquid filling the space between the
separating diaphragm of the seal and the pressure measuring device. The diaphragm seal task is to isolate the pressure
measuring device from damaging impacts caused by either medium or installation:

The flanged diaphragm seal with extended diaphragm is typically applied to measure the pressure or level of the media in
a multi-walled tank, where the separating diaphragm should be placed close to the inner wall of the tank.

Recommendations

The essential metrological problem at diaphragm seal operational use is an absolute thermal zero error, resulting from the
thermal expansion of the manometer liquid. The expansion effect must be compensated for with the separating diaphragm
flexibility.
To minimize this effect, it is advisable to:
