The Graphene infused Xylan 1427 series fastener-class coatings are waterborne/VOC-compliant, resin-bonded, thermally cured, single-film, dry-film lubricants and have become the standard for diaphragm gauge membranes with pressure ranges from 0-6 to 0-25 bar.
Working Principle of Diaphragm Pressure Gauges:
A thin corrugated membrane is built-in between the two flanges of the diaphragm pressure gauges. Pressure applied on one side of the membrane will deflect itself against the direction of the incoming pressure. This deflection of the diaphragm is a measure for the incoming pressure and is carried over to a gear segment onto the gear of the movement. This technology provides a much higher overload safety (up to 40 bar) than standard Bourdon Tube gauges.
For rough environments with vibrations or sudden pressure changes the Manodamp® mechanical movement dampener can be added to provide smooth pointer reading.
Diaphragm Seals are also available in Tantallum and other coatings.
For highly aggressive environments the connection socket and flanges can be made from special materials (316 Ti, PP; PVDF, PVC) and protected with an additional lining.
