Specialized pressure gauges featuring a flush diaphragm design. Perfect for viscous liquids, slurries, and applications demanding high levels of cleanliness and hygiene.
Our flush diaphragm pressure gauges offer a specialized solution for accurately measuring the pressure of viscous, sticky, or particulate-laden fluids where traditional pressure gauges would fail. The unique flush diaphragm design eliminates any internal cavities or dead spaces within the process connection, preventing clogging and ensuring consistent, reliable readings. These gauges are particularly well-suited for applications in the food, pharmaceutical, and other industries where hygiene, cleanliness, and the handling of challenging process media are of critical importance.

Flush diaphragm pressure gauges are specifically designed to address the challenges of measuring the pressure of viscous, sticky, or potentially clogging media. Unlike traditional pressure gauges that might have internal cavities or dead-end passages within the process connection, these gauges feature a diaphragm that is completely flush with the process connection. This eliminates any potential areas where material could accumulate and solidify, ensuring accurate and reliable readings over time.
The absence of internal volumes within the process connection is a critical design feature. This characteristic is paramount in applications where the measured substance has a high viscosity or contains particulate matter that could otherwise obstruct conventional pressure gauge ports. The direct contact of the process media with the diaphragm ensures immediate and precise pressure transmission.
These pressure gauges are often constructed from materials specifically selected for compatibility with aggressive or sanitary environments. Common materials include stainless steel alloys, which are known for its corrosion resistance and hygienic properties.
In applications involving food processing, the flush diaphragm design minimizes the risk of bacterial growth or contamination. Crevices and dead spaces, which can harbor bacteria, are entirely eliminated. This is crucial for maintaining product purity and meeting stringent hygiene standards.
Within the pharmaceutical industry, flush diaphragm pressure gauges are frequently used in bioreactors, filtration systems, and other processes where maintaining sterility and preventing cross-contamination are paramount. The clean-in-place (CIP) and sterilize-in-place (SIP) capabilities of these gauges are particularly advantageous, enabling thorough cleaning and sterilization without the need for disassembly.
The power source for these gauges is typically a battery, or from a local power source using an isolated external power supply.
Consider the use of flush diaphragm pressure gauges in applications such as monitoring the pressure of thick slurries in mining operations, measuring the pressure of pulp in paper mills, or gauging the consistency of food products like yogurt or sauces. In each of these cases, the flush design ensures that the gauge remains operational and accurate, despite the challenging nature of the process media. The absence of internal cavities also significantly reduces the maintenance requirements compared to other pressure gauge types.
