Mid-West Model 105 Bellows Type Differential Pressure Gauge, 0.4 – 2.9 PSID

ABLE Instruments are Mid-West Instrument’s Official Representative for Sales and Service in the UK and Ireland, including the Model 105 Bellows Type Differential Pressure Gauge (0-0.4 to 0-2.9 PSID or equivalent). The Mid-West Model 105 Bellows ΔP Gauge stands out with its impressive ± 1/2% or ± 1% full-scale accuracy. This precision instrument leverages system pressure applied to an internal bellows and mechanical linkage assembly. As the pressure fluctuates, this assembly moves, triggering either an electrical signal or a gauge pointer movement. Key components of the Model 105 include a two-piece body, a bellows sensing element with an over-pressure assembly, a torque tube assembly, a range spring, and the gauge front assembly.

The Mid-West Model 105 boasts a rugged bellows sensing element, a glass-reinforced thermoplastic dial case, and a weather / corrosion-resistant gauge front. Its 270° dial arc and shatter-resistant lens enhance readability and durability. Available dial sizes are 4-1/2” and 6”, with scale ranges from 0-10” H2O to 0-79.9” H2O, and it supports multiple dial scales including bar, mbar, kPa, and more. The gauge operates under pressures up to 6000 PSIG and temperatures ranging from -40°F to +200°F. With robust materials like aluminium, carbon steel, stainless steel, and brass, and versatile applications in tank monitoring, water treatment, and hydraulic systems, the Model 105 gauge is a reliable choice for precise differential pressure measurement.

Features:

• Durable bellows sensing element
• Panel-mountable dial case made of glass-reinforced thermoplastic
• Front of gauge is resistant to weather and corrosion
• 270° dial arc
• Shatter-resistant lens
• Over-range protection for both High over Low and Low over High

The body halves of the Model 105 bellows type gauge ensure effective pressure containment, clamping the sensing element and over-pressure assembly between them to segregate high and low side pressures. The high side body half supports the torque tube and gauge front assemblies. A unique feature of this differential pressure gauge is its bidirectional relief valve, offering over-pressure protection in both directions. When the high side is over-pressured, a mechanical stop opens the valve as the sensing element reaches its maximum deflection. Conversely, if the low side is over-pressured, the spring-loaded valve opens when differential pressure surpasses its limit, equalising pressure to safeguard the unit.

What is the ‘Locked-Logic’ switch option? The “Locked Logic” alarm control is a solid-state optical-electronic control option for Mid-West Models 105 differential pressure gauges, designed to maintain gauge accuracy. The standard unit operates on 8 to 28 VDC power, with optional inputs of 115 VAC or 220/240 VAC (50-60 hertz). The output interface includes one or two isolated SPDT or DPDT relay contacts, with adjustable set pointers within 5% of full scale. An adjustable deadband option allows the right set pointer to trigger the upper limit and the left to trigger the lower limit. The unit features weather-proof NEMA 4X or NEMA 7 enclosures and is suitable for hazardous locations, including Class I Division I and Class II Division I groups.
