Is Your Gauge Reading Accurate?

Many times operators are unable to measure accurate readings from the gauges in their process areas. This is true especially in processes with slurries such as alumina and pulp and paper.

HEC brings you Appcor gauge guards. With three different styles to meet your specific needs. Let HEC size the gauge guard for your specific process.

Other makes of guards are not specifically designed to protect instrumentation from process liquids containing suspended solids.

Of the three styles of Appcor slurry guards, we rate the S-875 as being "good". An oversized process fitting will assist in minimizing accumulation of solids in the guard housing. The S-875 guard has 3/4" to 1 1/4" process connections, 1 1/4" being the most popular.

Gauge connections can be 1/4" or 1/2" NPT. A 1/4" purge connection is located in the process side housing.

SR-1025

"Better"

If it is felt that a 1/4" purge valve, as provided with the S-875 guard, might not be large enough to clear accumulated solids from the guard and associated inlet piping, we offer the S-1025.

The S-1025 is considered a "better" gauge guard. It features a 3/4" purge connection which helps in the removal of accumulated solids.

The process connection options are 3/4" to 1 1/4" NPT. Instrument connections are 1/4" or 1/2".

The SR-1050 slurry guard is our "Best" and will work everytime to insure accurate gauge operation.

Developed when magnetite repeatedly plugged process connections to S-1025 guards in a heavy media coal washing plant, the SR-1050 incorporates both a 3/4" purge valve and a reamer to remove solids from the inlet connection and guard body. Standard stroke of the reamer will clean out a 6" length inlet connection.

Process connections are 3/4" to 1 1/4", gauge connections are 1/4" or 1/2" NPT.
