To prevent damage to the pressure transmitter from overpressure, it is important to avoid pressure spikes that exceed the rated overpressure capability of the transducer. Additionally, fluid hammer and surges should be avoided as they can destroy any pressure transducer. To eliminate the damaging effects of fluid hammer, a pressure snubber should be installed. Fluid surges can be damaging, especially if the pipe is originally empty, so it is recommended to keep fluid lines full if possible, bring pumps up to power slowly, and open valves slowly. Installing a surge chamber can help prevent damage from both fluid hammer and surges. If you have any questions or concerns about installing the pressure transmitter, it is recommended to consult Ashcroft Inc. before proceeding.
