Differential Gauges

Stainless Steel Case & Bourdon Tube Element Model 4503

Differential pressures are commonly used in industrial process systems. Differential pressure gauges have two inlet ports, each connected to one of the volumes whose pressure is to be monitored.

In effect, such a gauge performs the mathematical operation of subtraction through mechanical means, obviating the need for an operator or control system to watch two separate gauges and determine the difference in readings.

 

Budenberg 179F Differential Pressure Gauge

The gauge is designed to withstand full working pressure, applied separately to either connection or together. The maximum working pressure should not be exceeded even temporarily, so the possibility of surging pressures should be considered when selecting the instrument.
