(also tested per MIL standard 45662A).
CALIBRATION
WARNING ! READ THIS BEFORE INSTALLATION
Fluid hammer and surges can destroy any pressure transducer and must always be avoided. A pressure snubber should
be installed to eliminate the damaging hammer effects. Fluid hammer occurs when a pump is suddenly stopped, as
with quick closing solenoid valves. Surges occur when flow is suddenly begun, as when a pump is turned on at full power
or a valve is quickly opened.
Liquid surges are particularly damaging to pressure transducers if the pipe is originally empty. To avoid damaging surges,
fluid lines should remain full (if possible), pumps should be brought up to power slowly, and valves opened slowly. To avoid
damage from both fluid hammer and surges, a surge chamber should be installed, and a pressure snubber should be
installed on every transducer.
Symptoms of fluid hammer and surge's damaging effects:
1. Pressure transducer exhibits an output at zero pressure (large zero offset). If zero offset is less than 10% FS, user can
usually re-zero meter, install proper snubber and continue monitoring pressures.
2. Pressure transducer output remains constant regardless of pressure.
3. In severe cases, there will be no output.
