WIKA Operating Instructions - Differential pressure transmitter DPT-10
are available as 3-fold and 5-fold version. The integrated equalization
valve enables a pressure compensation between plus and minus side
during the setup. Thanks to the valve block it is possible to dismount
the DPT10 without interrupting the process. This means higher plant
availability and simpler setup or maintenance.
The 3-fold valve block with flanging on both sides enables a mechani-
cally stable connection between the DPT10 and e.g. the tapping
points or the flange plate of a pitot tube. With the five-fold valve block,
two additional valves allow blowing out the process lines or checking
the DPT10 in installed condition.
The following illustration shows the connection of the 3-fold valve
block.
