Ask the Expert – Impacts from Extended Pneumatic Tubing

Question:  

Magnehelic® Differential Pressure Gage

How will the installation of a Magnehelic® Differential Pressure Gage 150 feet away from the pressure source affect accuracy?

Answer:

Accuracy will not actually be affected; however, the response time will be increased in proportion to the length of the tubing.  The more tubing you have, the longer it will take for a slight change in pressure to reach the gauge.
