PT-SNUB-01 Pressure Snubber
Instructions
The Maretron PT-SNUB-01 Pressure Snubber is used in
combination with the Maretron FPM100 Fluid Pressure Monitor and a pressure
transducer FPM100 accessory. The PT-SNUB-01 dampens pressure variations between
a pressure source and the pressure transducer, both smoothing the changes due
to pressure spikes and surges and protecting the pressure transducer from these
changes. Please follow these instructions to install the PT-SNUB-01 Pressure
Snubber between a Maretron FPM100 pressure transducer accessory and a tank or
pressure source being monitored.
1. Please
refer to the FPM100 User’s Guide for detailed information on selecting a
mounting location for the pressure transducer.
2. The
PT-SNUB-01pressure snubber is equipped with a ¼” NPT male threaded fitting for
installation into the system being monitored. Install the pressure snubber to a
¼” NPT female fitting on the system or tank to be monitored with a maximum
torque of 150 in-lbs (16.95 Nm).
3. Install
the pressure transducer to the ¼” NPT female fitting on the PT-SNUB-01 pressure
snubber according to the instructions packaged with that transducer.
4. Continue
installation of the pressure transducer according to the instructions packaged
with that transducer.
