Contact Instrument’s Single Pointer Pressure Gauge systems are used to indicate pump pressure. Remote Pressure indicator receives its signal from a 15,000 psi, 2 in 1502 gauge protector assembly, 1:1 Piston Isolator or 4:1 Debooster. These gauges are precise, reliable and field proven. This system is available in pressures up to 15,000 psi. Each gauge comes fluid filled for added protection against vibrations. User adjustable dampening allows for fine tuning of pointer sensitivity.
Your process pressure instruments play a critical role in your applications. They accurately and reliably measure and monitor pressure to determine if process systems are working effectively and efficiently, or if you need to make system alterations or adjustments. This helps ensure the safety of your personnel, the efficiency of your processes and the quality of your products.
In this article, I will outline the most common instrument killers that endanger your pressure equipment. Although the focus of this blog is on pressure gauges, when the word instrumentis used, the reference is to a gauge, a pressure switch, or a transducer.
Component DamageVarious components of the gauge may have damage. For example, the pointer may be dented, a sign the gauge has been severely under or overpressure. In a liquid-filled gauge case, yellowed fill usually indicates elevated ambient temperature at the gauge. Also, the dial may be discolored, which is another sign of elevated temperature.
Below are some of the most common pressure instrument problems, including why they occur, what effects they have on the instrument and the overall operation or process, and how to resolve them.
In processing equipment, surges in process pressure can lead to pulsation in gauges. These pulsations can cause poor gauge readability due to pointer flutter and decreased gauge integrity due to component damage.
The Ashcroft MicroTube™orfinned siphonare rigid devices mounted directly to the instrument and then to the process so there is no need to consider how to mount the instrument if it were remotely mounted. The MicroTube™ siphon has been engineered for process pressures to 5000 psi and process temperatures to800°F (427°C). Thefinned siphon is rated for pressures to 3000 psi and process temperatures to700°F (371°C). Both devices are good temperature dissipaters.
Pressure spikes have many causes, including water hammer, overly rapid valve actuation, equipment malfunction or process fluid freezing. Gauges subjected to these conditions often show signs of damage like a dented pointer, a ruptured or deformed tube, or a broken segment gear. This damage can lead to unresponsiveness to changes in process conditions or complete instrument failure, both of which can result in poor operation or performance in your process.
Pressure spikes or surges beyond the full-scale range of a gauge or overpressure can result in accuracy degradation, gauge failure or rupture of the bourdon tube.
Integrating an internal stopYou can integrate an internal stop/overload stop to increase gauge proof pressure. This device typically increases gauge proof pressure by an additional 20%.
Installing a pressure limiting valve (PLV) or a gauge with high overpressure capabilityThis accessory device can be set to shut off at the full-scale range of the gauge. When process pressure falls below the full-scale gauge range pressure, the PLV will reset and allow process pressure to flow through the instrument. Another option to consider is a gauge with high overpressure capability like theAshcroft T6500 with the XRA option. This gauge allows for overpressure up to 400% of the gauge range.
Selecting a new, properly rated gaugeYou should choose a new gauge that accommodates the maximum operating pressure. For optimal readability, the gauge pointer should normally operate at 12:00 on the dial face. If the normal operating pressure of the gauge is 50 psi, choose a full-scale range twice the operating range or 0/100 psi.
Over the last decade, we have seen a huge increase in the sale of constant pressure pumps. Everyone sells them and most people are buying them. Everyone wants better pressure and many of you are willing to pay more to get it. Here are my thoughts.
When the pump turns on. A conventional water system turns on the pump when the pressure drops 20 psi. A pressure switch controls the pump and usually turns the pump on at 40 psi and off at 60 psi. A constant pressure water system is controlled by a pressure sensor. The controller usually turns the pump on when the pressure drops by only 5 psi. This means that you won’t have a large fluctuation in the pressure and that is why it is called a “constant pressure system”.
The speed that the pump runs. On a conventional system, the pump runs at full speed or not at all. It is either turning 3,450 rpm or zero. A constant pressure system will vary the speed of the pump to maintain a constant pressure. You might be taking a shower and only using 4 gpm. The pump will run the entire time you are using water. But, instead of running at full speed and turning off, it will turn slowly and maintain the pressure the whole time. Its kind of like “cruise control” for your well pump.
There are built in pump protections. Most controllers do a good job of protecting the pump from dry run, voltage supply issues, waterlogged pressure tanks, etc.
Some controllers can email or text you if there is a problem. Usually these devices are additional to the constant pressure controller, but this is an option on many units.
The controllers don’t like hot weather. They produce a lot of heat and they have to stay cool. So, when it is really hot outside, you might find that your controller will stop working or at least slow the pump down due to the excessive heat. Conventional systems rarely have this issue.
You don’t get the best pump protection. While the units do have built in pump protection, they are not the best at protecting your pump. A simple Pumpsaver is a great unit on a conventional system, but it won’t work on a constant pressure system. If you want great protection, stick with the original.
Do they work? Yes and no. Yes, they do a great job of keeping the pressure right in the range that you like. But, they don’t pump more water than conventional pumps. In fact, they use the exact same pump but with a different motor. So, if you have a problem with low water pressure due to high demand (like when the irrigation system is running) then switching to a constant pressure system will do nothing for you.
Is it worth it? Only you can decide that. Are you willing to pay more money and have more potential nuisance issues so that you can have very little fluctuation in pressure? A growing number of you are saying yes.
