Reducing Emissions from 3 – 1

Published: 17th November 2016 | Issue 39 Share article:

Some exciting developments have been underway at WIKA Instruments Ltd. We have combined instrument valve capability with our wealth of experience in manufacturing pressure gauges.

WIKA have reduced the traditional potential leak paths from 3 to 1 for a pressure gauge, swivel adaptor and isolator valve. This has been done through a special design which integrates the pressure gauge and the valve.

The benefits of reducing leak paths from 3 to 1 significantly lowers the risk of fugitive emissions and release of product into the environment. On top of this, the gauge and valve reduces vendor lists and indirect purchasing costs.

Key Features:
• Leak path reduction from 3 to 1
• Metal – Metal sealing, no gaskets or O rings required
• Compact assembly – prevents ‘Christmas tree’ effect on pipe work
• Reduced assembly and commissioning time
• Ranges between 0-1 bar and 0-600 bar
• Venting facility
• Accuracy ±1% FSD
• Hydrostatically tested assembly
• 360° orientation
• Pressure rated assembly 690 bar (10,000 psi)
• Operating temperature up to 200°C • Stainless steel to NACE or Monel Wetted parts
• Safety pattern design
