1.4 High-pressure applications
The overload pressure should not be exceeded when selecting the pressure
transmitters. The pressure transmitter can be damaged if the overload
pressure is exceeded (depending on length/frequency and height of the
pressure spike).
In case of air inclusions, the
“diesel effect” can create pressure spikes which
far exceed the overload pressure.
The nominal pressure of the pressure transmitter should therefore be greater
than the nominal pressure in the system to be measured.
