4. Design and function
Description
Pressures p
1
and p
2
are given in the ⊕ and ⊖ measuring chambers, separated
by the
magnetic piston
under pressure (or
magnetic piston and separating
diaphragm
for model 700.02).
The difference in pressure causes an axial movement (deflection) of the piston
supported by the
measuring range spring
.
The deflection resulting from this is taken up by a
ring magnet
found on
the instrument pointer and appropriately displayed. This design combines
the advantages of complete separation of the measuring system and the
indication while eliminating any leakage to the exterior.
For model 700.01 the volume flow from the ⊕ measuring chamber to the ⊖
measuring chamber is minimised by the constructive design and will not interfere
with standard processes.
These instruments are mainly intended for gas/air supply and preparation
applications where no
magnetic particles
are involved.
