Ashcroft Caters for Water Treatment Industries

Ashcroft offers a variety of pressure, temperature and control instruments specifically designed to meet the demands of the water treatment and wastewater industries. In addition, the company provides detailed documentation to meet critical engineering and compliance requirements. Ashcroft's dry, liquid-filled and Plus Performance pressure gauges are designed to meet the rigors of water treatment and wastewater applications.

Its Duragauge process gauges are used when a solid-front, ASME-grade 2A, 1/2 per cent accuracy pressure gauge is required. Standard features include a 400 Series stainless steel movement to provide longer life, an epoxy-coated system to ensure corrosion resistance and the patented Duratube Bourdon tube to provide strength. When pulsation and vibration are present in the process, the patented Plus Performance option provides the performance of a liquid-filled gauge, all in a dry gauge.

Plus Performance dampens vibration and pulsation, providing an easy-to-read gauge with no fill lines and a steady pointer. Plus Performance provides a wider temperature range over glycerin fill and eliminates costly speciality fluids, as well as the added expense for disposing of a liquid-filled gauge. Stainless steel case gauges are offered with a rugged, all-welded, socket-to-case design. When vibration and pulsation are a factor, these gauges are also available with the patented Plus Performance option as well as the patented Powerflex movement for improved shock resistance.

Independent laboratory testing has shown that the Powerflex movement is more shock resistant than conventional movement gauges. When a low-cost, commercial-type gauge with bronze wetted parts is a requirement, Ashcroft commercial gauges are available with the Powerflex movement as well as true-zero indication. With true-zero indication, users can be certain that if their gauge reads zero, there truly is zero pressure in their system.

Designed to measure the difference between two pressures across filters, strainers or separators, Ashcroft differential-pressure gauges offer a combination of Bourdon tube design and flexible diaphragm designs. Together, these features enable users to measure differential pressure in critical applications.
