Description
The PD8100 Series eliminates pointer flutter
on pressure indicating SWICHGAGE
®
devices
which are subject to pulsating pressure from
reciprocating pumps or compressors. It also
allows a close setting of high and low contact
points providing for more accurate pressure
indication and control of equipment.
The PD8100 Series decreases wear on geared
movements and increases the life of pressure
indicating instruments by eliminating exces-
sive gage strain and unnecessary movement.
A necessity which quickly pays for itself by
protecting any pressure indicating and control
instrument which is subject to pulsation.
PD8100 SERIES NOT FOR USE ON
OXYGEN OR LIQUID
OXYGEN APPLICATIONS.
Quality built with a large diameter valve stem
wheel for ease of adjustment with clearly printed
operating instructions. Machined from 1-3/8 in.
(35 mm) hex bar stock. A two degree taper on
valve and stem assure positive dampening.
Available in brass, carbon steel, 303 stainless
steel or 316 stainless steel to meet pressure
and environmental requirements with either
1/2 NPT or 1/4 NPT inlet connections.
