990.41 Diaphragm Seal with Flange Connection

A diaphragm made of the appropriate material provides for the separation from the medium to be measured. This allows for even the most difficult measuring requirements to be met by combining measuring instruments with diaphragm seals.

A system filled fluid inside can hydraulically transmit the pressure to the measuring instrument. This can be chosen to suit the particular application.

Almost limitless application possibilities exist due to the large number of available variants, such as diaphragm seal designs or materials. The type of process connection (flange, threaded and sterile connection) and the basic method of manufacture are important design differentiation criteria.

The model L990.41 diaphragm seal with flange connection and internal diaphragm is ideally suited for applications with small process connections. Due to the internal diaphragm (large diaphragm diameter) low measuring ranges can be realised. When the temperature changes, the diaphragm counteracts the volume expansion of the system fill fluid, thus ensuring a lower deviation at the measuring instrument.

Applications

For assembly (direct assembly, via a cooling element or a capillary) with measuring instruments for low pressures and with differential pressure measuring instruments
For aggressive, contaminated or hot media
Chemical process industry, petrochemical industry
Level measurement, filter monitoring

Special Features

Internal diaphragm with large working volume
Special materials available
Low temperature error due to large diaphragm diameter (realisation of low measuring ranges possible)
