Diaphragm seals are traditionally used when a standard pressure transmitter should not be exposed to the process pressure directly. Diaphragm seals typically protect the pressure transmitter from one or more damaging aspects of the process media. Consideration for using a diaphragm seal should be made in the following circumstances.
• High Process Temperature
• Process Media is Subject to Solidifying
• Process Media is Corrosive
• Process Application Requires Sanitary Connections
• Measuring Instrument Requires Remote Mounting
