Pressure gauges for measuring high temperature fluids or gases. These high temperature pressure gauges are have or include optional extra design features to protect the pressure gauge from high temperature media.
Sensitive components such as digital displays, micro-electronics and sensor elements are easily damaged by high temperatures and therefore it is necessary to introduce a method of thermal isolation between the vulnerable parts of the pressure gauge.
A temperature barrier can be accomplished by adding a cooling element between the process connection and the pressure gauge which dissipates the heat into the ambient temperature environment before it reaches the pressure gauge.
