BDT13 – Differential type pressure gauge 100 & 160mm

Product description
Badotherm differential pressure gauge model BDT13 has a stainless
steel diaphragm and one pointer to read the differential pressure.
The variation in high static pressure makes this gauge suitable for
almost all differential measurements. This pressure gauge is typically
used for applications in the chemical, petro-chemical, oil & gas,
power and utilities, machine building and general process industries.

Design standard
DIN 16003

Dial sizes, ranges & accuracy

Possibilities in ranges and accuracies are led by the dial size.
Accuracy class is based on dry gauges. Liquid filling can affect the
accuracy. Compound and vacuum ranges are possible as well based
on the standard ranges

Mounting manifold or diaphragm seals

The BDT13 is most commonly used in combination with a manifold
for easy testing and equalising. Advised valves for mounting to the
BDT13 is the BDTM932 or the BDTM953.

Diaphragm seals can be mounted as well to the BDT13 however only

a 81mm diaphragm is possible for the ranges ≥100 mbar and 89mm
diaphragm for ranges <100 mbar. Another aspect to keep in mind
that mounting effect of the diaphragm seals cannot be zero adjusted
on the BDT13. A levelled mounting (e.g. flow) is advised. Please
contact Badotherm Sales department for the correct combination.
