PENBERTHY SERIES 300 AND 400 GAGECOCK JACKETS
InstallatIon, operatIon and maIntenance InstructIons
2 INTRODUCTION
2.1 Features and specifications
Penberthy gagecock jackets are manufactured
for use on Penberthy Series 300 and 400
gagecocks. They are designed for heat
transfer of the gagecock body to or from a
secondary heating or cooling fluid. They offer
quick installation and ease of accessibility for
servicing the gagecock without jacket removal.
Heat transfer is accomplished without a need
for heat transfer cement, further simplifying
installation.
2.2 Design ratings at maximum and minimum
operating temperatures
The gagecock jacket minimum allowable
operating pressure is 150 psig (1030 kPaG)
at-20°F (-29°C) to +500°F (260°C).
To determine the maximum allowable working
pressure for a specific temperature within the
design limits stated above, the user should
refer to relevant technical data sheets or, when
provided, the specifically stated design limits
ona product proposal.
2.3 Application data
Note: for specific application data, the user
should consult the product proposal for the
specific gagecock jacket, or should request the
supply of the applicable technical data sheet.
WARNING
Under no circumstances should these design
ratings or application data be exceeded.
Exceeding design ratings or application data may
cause severe physical injury or property damage.
3 INSPECTION AND PERFORMANCE
CONFIRMATION
3.1 Receiving inspection
On receipt of 300/400 gagecock jacket set,
check all components carefully for damage
incurred during shipping. If damage is evident
or suspected, do not attempt installation. Notify
the carrier immediately and request a damage
inspection.
3.2 User’s rating inspection
The user should confirm that:
1. The gagecock jacket model, part number,
and pressure/temperature rating stamped
on nameplate (163) conforms to the
description on the user's purchase order.
2. The operating conditions described in
the purchase order agree with the actual
operating conditions at the installation site.
3. The actual operating conditions at the
installation site are within the application
data shown on the relevant technical data
sheet or product proposal referred to
previously.
4. The materials of construction of the
gagecock set are compatible with both
the contained fluid and the surrounding
atmosphere in the specific application.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
If the size, model, or performance data of the
300/400 gagecock jacket set as received does
not conform with any of the criteria above, do not
proceed with installation. Contact an authorized
Penberthy distributor for direction.
4 INSTALLATION
Installation should only be undertaken by
qualified personnel who are familiar with this
equipment and have read and understood all
of the instructions in this manual. The user
should refer to applicable technical data sheets
or product proposal to obtain dimensional
information for the specific size and model
gagecock jacket.
Recommendations on gagecock jacket
installations are necessarily related to the
installation of liquid level gagecocks. Follow all
installation instructions for the specific liquid
level gagecock set as there are many points to
consider.
WARNING
Failure to follow any of the liquid level gage or
gagecock installation instructions could result in
malfunction or failure of the gage or gagecocks
with resulting sudden release of pressure,
leakage of contained fluid, severe personal injury
or property damage.
CAUTION
Do not proceed with installation of gagecock
jacket unless the gagecock assembly has been
relieved of all pressure or vacuum, has been
allowed to reach ambient temperature, and has
been drained or purged of all fluids. Failure to
do so can result in a sudden release of pressure
causing personal injury or property damage.
During system shut down, the gagecocks
should be left open to allow the gage to reach
ambient temperature and lose pressure with
the system. Keeping the gagecocks closed
during shut down can trap high pressure fluid
in the gage.
Check exploded view Figure 2 for location of
piping connections to assure correct hook up.

PENBERTHY SERIES 300 AND 400 GAGECOCK JACKETS
InstallatIon, operatIon and maIntenance InstructIons
1. Prior to actual installation, loosen and
remove nuts and separate the two jacket
halves.
2. Join the jacket halves around each
gagecock and secure jacket halves together
with nuts. (Do not over tighten locknuts.)
Refer to Figure 1.
3. Use PTFE tape or equivalent on all male
tapered pipe thread connections.
4. Do not impose system piping loads
on gagecock jackets. Jackets are not
designed to be a load bearing component.
Heating/cooling piping must be supported
and aligned with the gagecock jacket
connections to reduce the possibility of
stresses imposed on the gagecock jackets.
Short flexible jump-overs may be installed
as an alternative.
5 OPERATION
5.1 Pre-operational check
1. Assure that all installation procedures have
been completed.
2. Check to determine that all connections are
pressure tight.
5.2 Hydrostatic test
1. Take all precautions necessary to handle
the possibility of leakage.
2. Hydrostatic pressure test heating/cooling
fluid line to at least 100 psig (690 kPaG) and
correct any leakage before proceeding.
5.3 Operation
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Gages should be brought into service slowly. The
glass used in Penberthy gages is tempered and
can stand minimal thermal shock or mechanical
stress. To avoid excessive thermal shock or
mechanical stress on the glass, the connecting
gagecocks should be opened slightly and the gage
temperature and pressure allowed to equalize
slowly with the vessel. If the gage is equipped with
gagecocks which have a ball check, the gagecocks
must be opened all the way to permit operation of
the automatic ball check in the event of failure.
6 MAINTENANCE
Maintenance should only be undertaken by
qualified, experienced personnel who are
familiar with gagecock equipment and have
read and understood all the instructions in
thismanual.
CAUTION
Do not proceed with any maintenance unless
the gage/gagecock assembly has been relieved
of all pressure or vacuum, has been allowed
to reach ambient temperature and has been
drained or purged of all fluids. Failure to follow
these instructions may cause a sudden release of
pressure resulting in personal injury or property
damage.
6.1 Preventative maintenance
The user must create maintenance schedules,
safety manuals, and inspection details for each
specific installation of a 300/400 gagecock
jacket set.
On all installations, the following items should
be evaluated regularly by the user for purposes
of maintenance:
1. Signs of leakage of fluid contained by the
gagecock.
2. Signs of leakage at heating/cooling fluid
piping connections.
3. Signs of internal or external corrosion.
The user must determine an appropriate
maintenance schedule necessary for his or
her specific application, upon evaluation of
their own operating experience. Realistic
maintenance schedules can only be determined
with full knowledge of the services and
application situation involved.
