WARNING:
READ BEFORE INSTALLATION
Fluid hammer and surges can destroy any pressure transmitter/transducer
and must always be avoided. A pressure snubber should be installed to
eliminate the damaging hammer effects.
Fluid hammer occurs when a liquid flow is suddenly stopped, as with
quick closing solenoid valves. Surges occur when flow is suddenly begun,
as when a pump is turned on at full power or a valve is quickly opened.
Liquid surges are particularly damaging to pressure transmitter/trans-
ducer if the pipe is originally empty. To avoid damaging surges, fluid
line should remain full (if possible), pumps should be brought up to
power slowly and valves operated slowly. To avoid damage from both
fluid hammer and surges, a surge chamber should be installed, and a
pressure snubber, such as Murphy PD-8100 Series (adjustable) or
PM6203 Series (fixed) call Murphy for details, should be installed on
every transmitter/transducer.
Symptoms of fluid hammer and surges damaging effects:
a.
Pressure transmitter exhibits an output at zero pressure (large zero offset).
b.
Pressure transmitter output remains constant regardless of pressure.
c.
In severe cases, there will be no output.
Noise
For minimum noise susceptibility avoid running the transmitters/transduc-
ers cable in a conduit that contains high current AC power cables or igni-
tion loom on engine. Where possible avoid running the cable near induc-
tive equipment. Shielded cable is always recommended. Earth the shield
at one end only.
Mounting
CAUTION:
THESE ARE PRECISION INSTRUMENTS.
DO NOT INSTALL IN ANY MANNER THAT CAN CAUSE
SIDE STRESS OR IS SUBJECT TO EXCESSIVE VIBRATION.
The transmitter/transducer requires no special mounting hardware and
can be mounted in any plane with negligible position error.
Although the unit can withstand substantial vibration without damage
or significant output effects, it is always good practice to mount the
transmitter where there is minimum vibration.
Apply Teflon tape/sealant to the pressure fittings threads before
installing. When tightening, apply a wrench to the hex wrench flats
located just above the pressure fitting.
DO NOT
tighten by using a
pipe wrench on the housing.
