general information
1.1.1.
general information about pressure gauges

Optimum safety results from the careful planning, selection and installation of the gauge to be used in a
pressurized system. The user should inform the manufacturer of all conditions pertinent to the
application and environment so the chosen specifications can be verified. The chosen materials are always
the responsibility of the customer, Badotherm can only advise based on knowledge and 50 years of
experience.
Mechanical pressure gauges are produced with bourdon tubes, diaphragms, bellows and capsules and are
accordingly different. The measuring instruments are made of copper alloy, alloyed steel or produced in
special materials for specific measuring applications.
The pressure sensing element in most gauges is subjected to high internal stress. To bring this stress down
to acceptable levels it is necessary to combine the instruments with pressure regulators, chemical seals,
pulsation dampeners, snubbers, siphons, manifolds, valves and other similar equipment. The potential
hazard increases at higher operating pressures, so safety is of paramount importance.

gauges with liquid filling

Many of the Badotherm pressure gauge series have the option of being liquid filled, to decide
whether you need a liquid filling consider the below following details. In the field, many
pressure gauges are exposed to vibration and / or shocks, sometimes transmitted by the
process fluid or by the way the gauge is mounted.
A consequence of this condition is that the moving parts and also the pointer will vibrate and
the actual reading will be impossible. High wear shortens the life cycle of the instrument drastically. Pulsations coming from the process fluid could be dampened by restrictors (referred to
as check-screws or throttle-screws) or valves, but this only applies for clean process fluid. The
restrictor has a small hole that easily can be clogged and can cause incorrect reading, this
again can lead to dangerous situations and may lead to accidents caused by wrong operation
decisions. In these cases liquid filling can protect the internal measuring system.
Dampening of vibration by reducing friction depends on the velocity of the moving parts
(movement, tube and pointer) in the liquid. In the case of fast changing values, the average
pressure will be indicated.
The friction depends again on the viscosity of the liquid in addition to the velocity of the
moving part. As the viscosities of liquids are temperature dependent, a series of standard filling
liquids can be used to suit the various thermal operating conditions.
If a chemical reaction of the process fluid with the liquid filling is possible in the event of a
leakage in the system, fluorinated liquids should be used (fluorolube). For example oxygen
with glycerine will cause an explosion so an alternative fluid must be used.
The small temperature dependence of silicone oils makes this oil perfect as filling fluid in places
where there are extreme climatic (cold) circumstances. In these cases the liquid filling will
protect against the possible freezing of the moving parts and operating reliability is secured,
even under extreme conditions. Also it will protect the internals from corrosive attack.
With liquid filling, the instrument must be sealed during transport but after installation it must
be vented because pressure measuring instruments with tube systems require the atmosphere
as a reference. Often this fact is forgotten with the consequence of a reading error.
The entry of aggressive ambient matter cannot be entirely excluded, and water condensate
may mix with filling liquid or when not filled collect at the bottom of the casing.
To avoid these aspects a hermetically closed instrument is required with a compensating
membrane built in such as the BDT20 series.
liquid filling of Badotherm gauges gives the following advantages

Increases dramatically the lifetime of the gauge under high dynamic operating conditions
Produces a steady reading when vibrations and pulsations occur
Avoids the entry of aggressive environment
Avoids the formation of water condensate
Increase general operational safety
Avoids misting of windows
Badotherm gauges are repairable in 63/80/100/160 mm (bayonet casings)

pressure elements guide

For most process conditions reliable measurement of the pressure is possible by using the
correct internal measuring system. In case of non-compatibility with the system, a chemical
seal in combination with a pressure gauge, transmitter or pressure switch will solve the
problem. Types below indicate the available options.

The test shall be made by rising and falling pressure. The number of test points shall be evenly distributed on the entire scale. The maximum scale value is a test point and the zero (free zero only)
is a test point.
- classes 0.1% up to 0.6% a minimum of 10 points.
- classes 1% up to 2.5% a minimum of 5 points.
Standard gauges may be pressurized for maximum 12 hours, to the full maximum scale value.
An over pressure is allowed for 15 minutes. Cyclic pressure testing may fluctuate between 30%
and 60% of the maximum scale value with a frequency of 20 to 60 cycles per minute.
pressure connections
The position of the connection can be specified per order, normal for bottom connection is
6 oclock. Thread forms and sizes are shown in table below. The different threads are parallel with
symbol G or BSP, tapered thread with symbol NPT. Other threads such as BSPT, SAE, metric are
available on request. The connection can be made from square, hexagon or round with flats.

With NPT threads the pressure seal is normally made by the fitting of the thread ( metal to metal)
by using special never seize paste or PTFE tape on the male thread before assembly, the jointing
material should be compatible with the process fluid.
warning labels
All pressure gauges sealed for the purpose of liquid filling have a device to assure atmospheric
compensation. A label glued to the case shows how to open after installation. Make sure this will
be done because if this device is not opened severe personal damage may be caused when
operating. For all standard pressure gauges an adhesive sticker is available that can be fixed on the
case with the following warning; Severe personal injury or damage may be caused by pressure
beyond the top of the scale, excessive vibration or pressure pulsation, excessive instrument
temperature, corrosion of the pressure containing parts, or other misuse. Refer to ASME B40.1.
liability
Badotherm shall not be liable for any damage or loss, caused to or by the item delivered as a
consequence of whatever event, unless and to the extent that any statuary provision or obligatory
force holds Badotherm liable.

1.1.1.
testing referred to EN837

When a gauge is tested for accuracy and hysteresis, test instruments with an accuracy of at least
4 times greater than the accuracy of the instrument to be tested, shall be required.
The test instrument shall be traceable to national or international standards.
1.1.1.
installation manual
do not tighten by grasping the case of the gauge as this may cause damage
Before installing a pressure gauge, consideration should be given to temperature, humidity,
vibration, pulsation, shock and other climatic and ambient conditions of the service application,
and also to the possible need for protective attachments and / or special installation requirements.
Consult ASME B40.1 1991 and NEN-EN837 to avoid misuse.
The user shall ensure that the correct gauge has been selected with the correct range, construction
and materials.
When a gauge incorporates a blow out device or blow out back, a minimum distance of 20 mm
from any obstacle shall be ensured.
When tightening direct mounting gauges ( type A or D ) one should only use the correct spanner
on the connection, this will avoid damage to the case and incorrect reading of the pressure range.

applications
Badotherm contacts are used on diameter 100/160 mm. The contacts are available in single,
double and triple versions and can be built under or on to the dial.
The nominal value can be set from the outside covering the full scale and the switching
direction is clockwise.
technical specification contact devices

S-type: low-action contacts
Low action contacts are suitable for use when there is no high contact loads and vibration.
These contacts are not suitable for use in heavy duty operation, aggressive environment and oil
filled gauges. A pulse controlled protection relay is recommended to secure a long working life
(MSR series).
M-type: magnet-action contacts

These contacts can be used in almost all operating conditions and are usually not affected by
vibration. A pulse controlled contact relay is recommended.
E-type: electronic contacts

Electronic contacts are equipped with a 3-wire non-touching proximity switch PNP (polarity
safe) these contacts can be used for the direct control of an SPS or other electronic control
features. E contacts may not be used in Ex-zones. An isolating amplifier is not necessary.
I-type: inductive contacts

Inductive contacts are equipped with non-touching proximity switches , due to a contact free
operation the switching accuracy and long life service makes this contact suitable for any industrial application. When used together with isolating amplifier WE77/Ex the set complies with
protection type I (intrinsic safety), classified as EEx ib IIC T6 and is homologated for zones 1 and
2. Connection diagram is shown on page 36.

low action contacts
Low-action type contacts can be used where high contact loads are not required and where
vibration does not occur. They cannot be used in potentially explosive areas due to sparking or
where oxidation of the contact components due to an aggressive atmosphere can occur. In the
table below only single and double contacts are shown, but the contact devices are also
available as triple or quadruple types. The functions are given considering the pointer moves in
a clockwise direction so that the pointer passes the set point (break or make contact).

Magnetic type contacts can be used under virtually all conditions, they are largely insensitive to
vibration. The contact pin holder of the setting pointer is fitted with an adjustable magnet
which attracts the contact arm just before the preset level is reached. This avoids arcing and

inductive contacts
Inductive contacts are non-contacting operating electrical switching elements.
Basically the contact system consists of a pair of coils energised in a transistorized oscillator
whose RF magnetic field is influenced by a metal control tab. This influence effects a change in
the amplitude of oscillation of the oscillator which communicates to a succeeding amplifier.
By means of the amplifier a relay is controlled which releases the actual switching process.
The advantage of this contact is that the systems can be used in rooms where there is an
explosive hazard up to classification (Ex) I G5; in addition they are wear resistant due to lack of
mechanical contact and therefore need no maintenance.

electronic contacts
Electronic contacts can be used in almost all industrial applications. Due to their switching
accuracy (proximity type) these contacts are suitable for precision measuring instruments (also
for liquid filled and low pressure instruments). Compared with inductive contacts this system is
more cost effective because it does not need an amplifier.
Electronic contacts with a PNP output are particularly suitable for switching small DC loads
(10-30 V DC, under 100 mA), for instance PLC signal inputs.

With a PNP switching unit, the switched output (U) is a connection towards "+" (brown).
The load (R) between (U) and the connection towards "-"(blue) should be selected in a way not
to exceed the maximum switching current (100 mA).
No direct connection between (U) and "-"
load table for limit value switches

The basic condition for safe switching is the clean electrically conductive surface of the contact
pins. Technical details as under are valid for low-action contacts (without magnet) and for
snap-action contacts (with magnet).

For a filled gauge with contacts the contact load is approx 30% less.
To guarantee maximum switching safety, to avoid switching interruptions and to increase the
switching power, we recommend the protection of MSR series relays.
The service life of the contact devices is considerably increased, because the contacts open and
close under no voltage in 99% of cases.
A switching amplifier should be used in all oil filled measuring instruments.

multi functional relay type MSR for low-action and magnetic contacts
If properly used, electrical mechanical limit value switches (contact devices) guarantee safe
switching and a long service life.
The following should be observed when these contacts are being used.
The switching capacity is limited by the size of the element and by the adjusting forces bearing
on the contact arms available for the respective instrument pointers (actual value pointer).
Higher transitional resistances may be caused by exterior effects such as pollution,
an aggressive atmosphere, oxidation or the like, and these may jeopardize the switching safety.
Contact chattering or bouncing may occur through very low contact forces (pressure of the
contact pins) and may cause undesired switching operations which may limit the service life of
the limit value switches and may even release uncontrolled switching operations.
Switching of loads may produce a switching spark. In oil filled gauges these sparks will
disintegrate the oil and turn it cloudy. In addition, the contact surfaces may carbonize.
These impurities as well as the oil itself form an isolating layer on the contact surfaces which
again cause faulty switching operations.
relay function
The pulse controlled multifunctional relays of the MSR series have been developed for the special
purpose of solving the above mentioned problems. The following solutions have been established.
Almost load-free switching of the contact by pulse control signals in the ratio 1:100.
Overcoming resistive layers by pulse voltages up to 40 V at a rising speed of typical 120 V/sec.
Reduction of controllable wrong switching operations of the contact caused by shatters or
other vibrations of same, by the introduction of a fall delay time of 0.4 seconds
(changes are possible upon request)
Increase of the switching performance of the contact by a posterior relay provided with a
potential free changer.
models available
MSR-10 this is a monostable execution for the connection of a single contact
such as S-1 / M-2 or S-2 / M-2.
MSR-20 this is a monostable execution for the connection of one double or two single contacts
such as S-1 / M-2 to S-22 / M-22.
MSR-11 this is a bistable execution for connection of a double (interval operation)
such as S-21 and M21.
With this execution, the switching condition of one contact is memorized temporarily
until the other contact is operated (no permanent storage).
All the above mentioned executions are also available with the following supply voltages;
