or Dresser Instrument Division. Use of a diaphragm seal with the gauge is recommended for
process media that (a) are corrosive to the
process sensing element; (b) contain heavy particulates (slurries) or (c) are very viscous including those that harden at room temperature.

WARNING: To prevent misapplication, pressure gauges should be selected considering
media and ambient operating conditions.
Improper application can be detrimental to the
gauge, causing failure and possible personal
injury, property damage or death. The information contained in this manual is offered as
a guide in making the proper selection of a
pressure gauge. Additional information is
available from Dresser Instrument Division.
2.0 TEMPERATURE
2.4 Hot or very cold media A five foot capillary line assembly will bring most hot or cold
process media within the recommended gauge
ambient temperature range. For media above
750F (400C) the customer should use his own
small diameter piping to avoid possible corrosion of the stainless steel. The five foot capillary
will protect the gauges used on the common
cryogenic (less than 300F (200C) gases, liquid
argon, nitrogen, and oxygen. The capillary and
gauge must be cleaned for oxygen service. The
media must not be corrosive to stainless steel,
and must not plug the small bore of the capillary.
Although the gauge may be destroyed and calibration lost, gauges can withstand short
times at the following temperatures: gauges
with all welded pressure boundary joints,
750F (400C); gauges with silver brazed joints,
450F (232C) and gauges with soft soldered
joints, 250F (121C). For expected long term
service below 20F (30C) Duragauges and
412 1009 gauges should be hermetically
sealed and specially lubricated; add H to the
product code for hermetic sealing. Add variation XVY for special lubricant. Standard
Duralife gauges may be used to 50F (45C)
without modification.

4.0 OPERATION
4.1 Frequency of inspection This is quite
subjective and depends upon the severity of
the service and how critical the accuracy of
the indicated pressure is. For example, a
monthly inspection frequency may be in order
for critical, severe service applications.
Annual inspections, or even less frequent
schedules, are often employed in non-critical
applications.

4.6 Spare parts As a general rule it is recommended that the user maintain in his
parts inventory one complete Ashcroft instrument for every ten (or fraction thereof) of that
instrument type in service.
6.0 ACCURACY:
PROCEDURES/DEFINITIONS
Accuracy inspection Readings at approximately five points equally spaced over the
dial should be taken, both upscale and downscale, before and after lightly rapping the
gauge to remove friction. A pressure standard
with accuracy at least 4 times greater than
the accuracy of the gauge being tested is recommended.
Equipment A finely regulated pressure supply will be required. It is critical that the piping system associated with the test setup be
leaktight. The gauge under test should be

will change this error by approximately
0.25%. Rotating the movement often
affects span and it should be subsequently
rechecked and readjusted if necessary
according to step 6.1e and 6.1f.

7.5 Failures Diaphragm failures are generally caused by either corrosion, high temperatures or fill leakage. Process media build-up
on the process side of the diaphragm can also
require seal cleaning or replacement. Consult
Customer Service, Stratford CT for advice on
seal failures and/or replacement. Refer also to
Product Information page ASH/PI-14C containing drawing 96A121 Corrosion Data
Guide.
