ONYX Valve has partnered with SOR Inc to formulate a new solution for monitoring pressure on tough applications. The resulting device utilises an Onyx isolator ring and a multi-function pressure instrument SGT from SOR.
The Onyx isolator ring provides a practical, cost-effective way of obtaining accurate pressure measurements on slurries, abrasives and hard-to-handle materials.
The isolator ring is vacuum-filled at the factory with high-viscosity silicone-fluid; then permanently sealed with Onyx's "Module-Seal".
The isolator ring can be used in a variety of industries such as chemical, food and beverage, mining, pulp and paper and waste water treatment.
Typical applications include (but are not limited to):
* Pressure measurement of slurries, corrosives and abrasives.
* Monitoring pressure on long distance pipelines to detect line breakage.
The Onyx isolator ring is available with a centre section made of SS316 or Carp-20; the elastomers available include Neoprene, Buna-N, EPDM, Viton and Hypalon.
The SGT electronic pressure instrument is an innovative field sensor from SOR (Static-O-Ring). This multi-function device provides two relays, local indication and a 4-20mA output and is designed for use in Class 1, Div 2 hazardous locations.
Fast response, self-diagnostics, on-line testing and password protection help ensure that the SGT provides reliable information for monitoring and controlling applications.
Available in ranges from 10 to 2,000 psig/psia and 30" Hg vacuum, the SGT is UL and cUL approved and ATEX certified for hazardous applications.
