EM2000 / EMS2000 Mechanical Differential Pressure Gauges

Description

Mechanical air-pressure indication without a power supply

EM2000 and EMS2000 gauges use a diaphragm and magnetic helix movement to indicate positive, negative or differential pressure. The clear pointer dial gives a continuous local reading without batteries, external power or liquid fill. Typical uses include HVAC ducts, air filters, fans, blowers, cleanrooms, laboratories, pharmaceutical facilities, microelectronics production and agricultural ventilation.

Nominal dimensions120mm × 55mm; reference outline Ø120.65mm × 55.56mm
Approximate product weight540g
Units and scalesPa, kPa, mmWC, in.WC and mbar choices; custom scale markings available
MountingVertical calibration; surface or flush mounting, with optional pipe-mounting kit
Mounting-hole patternThree #6-32 holes, 4.76mm deep, equally spaced on a 104.78mm bolt circle
Included fittingsTwo 1/8in hose-barb fittings, two 1/8in NPT plugs and three mounting adapters with screws

The dial span and case-pressure rating serve different purposes. Use the ordered measuring scale and the maximum-pressure marking on the instrument. Keep the pressure-relief path clear.

Pressure connections

For positive pressure, connect the source to either high-pressure port, plug the unused high-pressure port and vent the low side. For negative pressure, connect the vacuum source to a low-pressure port, plug the unused low-pressure port and vent the high side. For differential pressure, connect the higher and lower pressures to their respective ports and plug the unused connections.

Vent both sides before adjusting zero with the external screw at the bottom of the cover. Temporary installations can use Ø4mm inside-diameter rubber or polyethylene tubing; permanent installations use tubing of at least 1/4in, with copper or aluminum recommended. A long tube slows response, and blocked tubing prevents correct pressure transmission.

Mounting and medium selection

Mount vertically away from severe vibration and direct sunlight. Keep the approximately 0.58mm rear relief clearance unobstructed. The standard configuration is intended for compatible gas service; direct liquid service and hydrogen applications require a separately suitable construction. The English manual contains mounting illustrations, the complete outline dimensions, operating procedures and media precautions.
