Micravor Diaphragm type Differential Pressure Gauge
The Budenberg model 180 differential pressure gauges have been manufactured with a stainless steel diaphragm as the measuring element, the strength of which depends on the differential pressure graduation. The element is isolated from the pressure by two Melinex diaphragms so that only clean oil fills the chamber in which the mechanism operates.
Melinex is a polyester film (polyethylene terephtalate) that is resistant to all petroleum refining industry fluids. Please consult our technical department to check suitability for other chemicals.
The 180 is generally used in applications where the system pressure is very much higher than differential range and can be used for measuring differential pressure in filters , strainers, coolers, pumps, natural gas strainers, orifice plates and venturi tubes.

| Equalising Valves | Budenberg recoomends the use of needle type isolating or equalising valves for use with this instrument, as quick operating valves can cause harmful pressure surges. |
| Snubbers | If pressure surges or fluctuations cannont be eliminated we can offer guages with an internal snubber which gives a delay of up to 20 seconds. |
