Home > Temperature > Bourdon Tube Pressure Gauge
KOBOLD’s MAN-R Pressure Gauges provide both pressure indication and optional switching capabilities within a single device.
The bourdon tube sensing element and internal movement is available in a rugged copper alloy or chemically resistive stainless steel. The housings are made of stainless steel with NPT fitting choices with a back or bottom mount configuration.
Those with rear mount fittings are also available with a panel mounting front
flange.
The MAN-R offers a choice of up to four magnetic, sliding, or highly reliable inductive switches.
Glycerin oil filling is available as an option to dampen excessive pointer movement caused by machine vibrations and offers increased service life under extreme operating conditions. Paraffin oil is specified when higher temperature conditions or optional switches are required.
Resistance to aggressive media and environments is achieved by using high-grade materials such as stainless steel both for the movement and the housing. They can be used for liquid or gaseous substances which do not crystallize and are not highly
viscous.
The extensive range of options allows the user to adapt the instruments to their own special requirements. All the pressure gauges comply with general international guidelines and take account of standard as well as application-specific requirements.
They are the result of the over 70 years experience we have in building pressure gauges.
Measuring Principle
Mechanical pressure measurement uses the principle of an elastic measuring element, which generates a precisely defined, reproducible deflection when subjected to pressure. The motion works convert this into a rotary motion of the pointer.The pressure at the measuring element can be read on the scale of the dial.
