PG23HP-P WIKA high pressure manometer

Description

The WIKA PG23HP-P high pressure manometer is used for pressure measurement of gaseous and liquid media.

The PG23HP-P Bourdon pressure gauge model has been specifically designed for high pressure applications up to 6,000 bar. This makes it one of the few pressure gauges available worldwide that can reliably display pressures of this order of magnitude.

Typical measurement points for this pressure gauge can be found in water jet cutting, high pressure cleaning and test bench fabrication.

WIKA manufactures and qualifies the PG23HP-P model according to the requirements of the new high pressure standard DIN 16001 in safety version “S3”. The safety version consists of laminated safety glass, a solid partition between the measuring system and the dial, and a vent. In the event of a failure, the operator is protected at the front, as the media or components can only be ejected through the back of the instrument.

Using high quality stainless steel and nickel alloys, the PG23HP-P has excellent load stability and a long service life. The instrument reliably performs to specification with both static and dynamic pressure profiles. The standard accuracy of the PG23HP-P is 1.0%. For scale ranges up to and including 0 … 4000 bar, the instrument is optionally available with an improved indication accuracy of 0.6 %. Optional case filling can increase resistance to shock and vibration.

Accessories

The new WIKA pressure measurement system is an EMICO emission meter that ensures the safety of people and the environment in critical processes. The system consists of pressure gauges of models 2xx.30 in the safety version or S-3 in accordance with EN 837-1 (S3) and a valve to prevent fugitive emissions:

• IVM stop and vent valve with WIKA flange
• IV10 needle valve for WIKA pressure gauges
• IV11 multiport needle valve for WIKA pressure gauges
• IV20 shut-off and vent valve for WIKA pressure gauges
• IV21 shut-off and vent valve for WIKA pressure gauges

The measuring instrument and the valve are connected by a lightweight swivel adapter with a special sealing packing. The system is leak tested in accordance with TA Luft (VDI 2440) for fugitive emissions. The EMICO system measures pressures from 0 to 420 bar or 6000 psi. In the event of a failure due to high overpressure, the S-3 safety version protects the user from injury.

The compact measuring system can be started up immediately after delivery. The free rotating swivel adapter allows 360° positioning of the display and easy disassembly of the measuring instrument (in case calibration is required). In accordance with ISO 15848-1 and TA-Luft, S-3 pressure gauges can be combined with top valves in a fugitive design to form EMICO gauges.
