Why is a condensation ring added to pressure gauges?

Thread Content

Could some expert please explain why a condensation elbow is necessary when the temperature of the medium exceeds 60°C? I want to know the reason. Thank you.

What’s the need for a pressure gauge? Just use a flanged capillary pressure transmitter

As the name implies, condensation occurs, although the effect is not obvious~

It is primarily used to cool the medium being measured, to smooth out pressure fluctuations, and also to prevent the elastic components from having their properties altered by the temperature of the medium.

. The condensation ring can block heat transfer. https://bbs.hcbbs.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=1292790 .

I think it’s mainly to prevent the measuring elements from deforming due to excessive temperatures, which could affect the accuracy of the pressure gauge; condensation is just a means to achieve that, I’m not sure if that’s correct. The ambient temperature around the pressure gauge in the boiler is also very high; I’m not sure if that has any impact.

Pressure gauges are generally bent metal tubes with different lengths on the inner and outer rings; large temperature changes can cause pressure measurement errors due to the \"bimetallic temperature sensing effect\".

Could you tell me which large company you work for? ? :L

I don’t know what the teacher meant by condensation bend. It still refers to the elbow of the pipe. The function of the elbow pipe is to isolate.
