Dwyer 2300 MAGNEHELIC, DIFFERENTIAL PRESSURE GAUGE15-0-15CM
Precision litho-printed scale is accurate and easy to read.
Red tipped pointer of heat treated aluminum tubing is easy to see. It is rigidly mounted on the helix shaft.
Pointer stops of molded rubber prevent pointer over-travel without damage.
"Wishbone" assembly provides mounting for helix, helix bearings and pointer shaft.
Jeweled bearings are shock-resistant mounted; provide virtually friction-free motion for helix. Motion damped with high viscosity silicone fluid.
Zero adjustment screw is conveniently located in the plastic cover, and is accessible without removing the cover. O-ring seal provides pressure tightness.
Helix is precision made from an alloy of high magnetic permeability. Mounted in jeweled bearings, it turns freely, following the magnetic field to move the pointer across the scale.
Samarium Cobalt magnet mounted at one end of range spring rotates helix without mechanical linkages.
Calibrated range spring is flat spring steel. Small amplitude of motion assures consistency and long life. It reacts to pressure on diaphragm. Live length adjustable for calibration.
Silicone rubber diaphragm with integrally molded O-ring is supported by front and rear plates. It is locked and sealed in position with a sealing plate and retaining ring. Diaphragm motion is restricted to prevent damage due to overpressures.
Die cast aluminum case is precision made and iridite-dipped to withstand 168 hour salt spray corrosion test. Exterior finished in baked dark gray hammerloid. One case size is used for all standard pressure options, and for both surface and flush mounting.
Blowout plug of silicone rubber protects against overpressure on 15 psig rated models. Opens at approximately 25 psig.
O-ring seal for cover assures pressure integrity of case.

FAQs of Dwyer 2300-30CM Magnehelic Differential Pressure Gauge Range 15-0-15 CM:
Q: How do I install the Dwyer 2300-30CM Magnehelic Differential Pressure Gauge?
A: Installation is straightforward; the gauge supports both surface and flush mounting. Use the included mounting bracket and adaptors, and connect air lines to the 1/8 NPT female ports located on the side or back. Ensure the gauge is mounted vertically and follow the provided instructions for optimal accuracy.
Q: What applications is this pressure gauge suitable for?
A: The Dwyer 2300-30CM is ideal for monitoring differential air pressure in HVAC systems, clean rooms, filter status, and draft measurements. Its durability and precision make it well-suited for industrial environments where reliable pressure monitoring of air and non-corrosive gases is critical.
Q: When should I adjust the zero point on this gauge?
A: Zero adjustment should be performed whenever you notice drift from the zero point with no applied pressure, or as part of routine calibrationtypically before each measurement session. The external dial makes this process quick and simple, ensuring continued measurement accuracy.
Q: Where should the gauge be located for best results?
A: Install the Magnehelic gauge in a location free from excessive vibration, direct airflow, or temperature extremes. Ensure the front acrylic cover is exposed only to environments consistent with its IP53 rating, which protects against limited dust and dripping water.
Q: What safety features does the Dwyer 2300-30CM offer?
A: This model boasts an explosion-proof overpressure limit up to 172 kPa (2.5 psi), with a momentary maximum of 21 kPa, providing enhanced protection during pressure surges. Its robust die-cast aluminum housing and precision engineering further contribute to operational safety.
Q: How quickly does the gauge respond to pressure changes?
A: The Dwyer 2300-30CM delivers rapid feedback, with a typical response time of just one second, ensuring real-time monitoring and timely process adjustments.
Q: What are the benefits of using this specific gauge over others?
A: This model combines outstanding measurement accuracy (2% of full scale), rapid response, robust construction, and effective dust and water ingress protection. It is precision-engineered for consistent operation in demanding environments and supports both easy installation and ongoing maintenance.
