Please read this manual thoroughly before using the product to ensure safe and efficient operation.

2. భద్రతా సమాచారం

• ఒత్తిడి పరిమితులు: Do not exceed the maximum rated pressure of 400 psi. Over-pressurization can cause gauge failure and potential injury.
• సంస్థాపన: Ensure the gauge is installed by qualified personnel using appropriate tools and sealing methods.
• సిస్టమ్ అనుకూలత: Verify that the gauge's wetted parts (Brass/Bronze) are compatible with the process media to prevent corrosion or damage.
• ఉష్ణోగ్రత పరిమితులు: Operate the gauge within the specified temperature range of -20°F to 150°F. Extreme temperatures can affect accuracy and lifespan.
• నిర్వహణ: Avoid dropping or subjecting the gauge to severe impact, as this can damage internal components.

3. ఉత్పత్తి ముగిసిందిview మరియు భాగాలు

4. సంస్థాపన మరియు సెటప్

1. Inspect Gauge: Before installation, visually inspect the gauge for any signs of damage. Do not install a damaged gauge.
2. Prepare Connection: Ensure the system connection point is clean and free of debris.
3. సీలెంట్ వర్తించు: Apply an appropriate thread sealant (e.g., PTFE tape or pipe dope) to the 1/4 inch MNPT threads of the gauge connection. Ensure sealant does not enter the gauge or system.
4. Thread Gauge: Carefully thread the gauge into the system connection by hand until finger-tight.
5. బిగించు: Using a wrench on the wrench flats of the gauge connection (not the case), tighten the gauge until secure. Avoid over-tightening, which can damage the threads or the gauge.
6. దిశను ధృవీకరించండి: Ensure the gauge dial is oriented for easy reading.
7. వ్యవస్థ ఒత్తిడి: Slowly pressurize the system and check for leaks at the connection point.

5. ఆపరేషన్

The ASHCROFT 1009AWL Pressure Gauge is designed for straightforward operation. Once properly installed, the gauge will continuously display the system pressure.

• గేజ్ చదవడం: Observe the pointer's position on the dial. The primary scale is in psi (pounds per square inch), ranging from 0 to 400. The smallest graduation is 10 psi.
• ఆపరేటింగ్ షరతులు: Ensure the operating environment and process media remain within the gauge's specified temperature range of -20°F to 150°F.
• ఖచ్చితత్వం: The gauge provides readings with an accuracy of +/-1.50% of full scale.
• పల్సేషన్: The glycerin filling helps to dampen pointer fluctuation in systems with pulsation or vibration, providing a more stable reading.

6. నిర్వహణ

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and accuracy of your pressure gauge.

• సాధారణ తనిఖీ: Periodically inspect the gauge for any physical damage, such as a cracked lens, bent pointer, or corroded case.
• పరిశుభ్రత: Keep the gauge lens clean to ensure clear visibility of the dial. Use a soft, damp cloth for cleaning; avoid abrasive cleaners.
• రీకాలిబ్రేషన్: While ASHCROFT gauges are built for accuracy, prolonged use or exposure to harsh conditions may necessitate recalibration. Consult a qualified technician for recalibration services if accuracy is critical and suspected to be compromised.
• Liquid Fill: The glycerin fill is sealed. If the liquid level appears significantly low or cloudy, the gauge may require replacement or professional servicing.

7. ట్రబుల్షూటింగ్

Below are common issues and potential solutions for the ASHCROFT 1009AWL Pressure Gauge:

• No Reading / Pointer Stuck:
  • Verify that the system is pressurized.
  • Check for blockages in the connection line to the gauge.
  • Inspect for physical damage to the gauge.
• Inaccurate Reading:
  • Ensure the gauge is operating within its specified temperature range.
  • Confirm the gauge's range is appropriate for the system pressure.
  • Consider professional recalibration if accuracy is critical and other factors are ruled out.
• Leak at Connection:
  • వ్యవస్థను తగ్గించండి.
  • Re-apply thread sealant and re-tighten the connection.
  • Inspect threads for damage.
• Liquid Fill Discoloration/Loss:
  • This may indicate a seal compromise or internal issue. The gauge may need replacement.
