C-TYPE BOURDON TUBE

PRESSURE GAUGE
Principle: c type bourdon
tube pressure gauge is works
on the principle of Elasticity.
Uses: Pressure gauge is used
to measure pressure.

C-TYPE BOURDEN TUBE PRESSURE GAUGE

C-TYPE BOURDEN TUBE
PRESSURE GAUGE :
It is a cylindrical type of C
shape.
MOC :
It is made of phosphorous bronze,
glass baralium or copper.
USE :
It is used to measure pressure.

CAPSULE PRESSURE GAUGE

Introduction:
Capsule type pressure gauge is very
sensitive than bellows & bourden tube
gauge.
It is very useful for measurement of low
pressure & Where highly accurate
reading is required.
Capsule pressure range is between 1 atm
to 0.5 m bar.

CONSTRUCTION
In the capsule type pressure
gauge, capsule is made from
copper-beryllium.
It consist of corrugated
diaphragm which is joint with
edge.

WORKING
Capsule is evacuated, in the
absolute indicators & then it is
sealed. Pressure is input into
the instrument due to change
in Pressure. The measurement
of capsule is Changed which
is transmit to rotary pointer by
mechanical linkage.

DIAPHRAGM TYPE PRESSURE

GAUGE
Introduction:
Diaphragm is widely useful for
measurement of gauge pressure &
draft measurement.
It is detect pressure differential
between 0 to 4 mm. It can be flat,
corogouted or disc-plate. Its shape
is depend on deflection strength.
There are two diaphragm:
(1) Metallic diaphragm gauge
(2) Slack diaphragm gauge

METALLIC DIAPHRAGM GAUGE

It consist of thin flexible
diaphragm which is made
from brass & bronze.
Parts of metallic diaphragm
gauge:
(A)Pointer
(B) Scale
(C) Metal diaphragm
(D) Pressure inlet

SLACK DIAPHRAGM GAUGE

Slack diaphragm gauge is very

useful for 0.01 to 0.04 mmhg
pressure range.
1.2% accuracy is achieved by
this gauge.

ADVANTAGES OF DIAPHRAGM
GAUGE
(A) It is useful for measurement of
Absolute & differential pressure
measurement
(b) It consist of linearity.
(c) It is made from good corrosion
resistance material.

DISDVANTAGES OF DIAPHRAGM
GAUGE
(A) It is use for limited pressure
measurement.
(B) Its vibration & shock resistance are
less.
(c) Its maintenance is difficult.
