INSTALLATION
1. Select a convenient location and drill two 1/2˝ (12.7 mm) holes “E”
inches/centimeters apart on a horizontal line. Mount the gage with the
toggle olt assem lies, adjust to a level position as indicated y the
spirit level, and tighten securely.
2. Drill two 7/16˝ (11.1 mm) holes in the duct, one on each side of the
filter and at least 12˝ (30.48 cm) distant. Secure the static pressure tips
as in the drawing a ove, with the tips directed into the air flow.
3. Connect 1/4˝ (6.35 mm) metal tu ing from static pressure tips to the
gage. The tip on the downstream or fan side of the filter leads to the
right-hand gage connection, etc.
4. Slip out oth gage connector plugs, venting oth sides of the gage to
atmosphere, and slide scale so that the zero mark lies directly ehind
the fluid meniscus, as in the drawing. Align fluid meniscus and the
reflected image to eliminate parallax error.
5. Add or remove fluid as necessary.
6. Replace oth gage connector plugs, and the gage will indicate the
pressure drop across the filter.
7. Filter manufacturers provide figures covering the pressure drop
through their filters, at rated volume, when new and after use. Thus, for
a typical filter, initial resistance might e .25˝ of water (62.05 Pa) and
permissi le increase .30˝ water (74.46 Pa). Such a filter should e
serviced at a gage reading of .55˝ water (136.5 Pa).
CAUTION:
Use Dwyer Instruments, Inc. gage fluid only. Clean with soap and water
only. Other fluids or cleaning agents may damage the gage.
