Product Description
Dwyer 60-0-600 Pa Differential Pressure Gauge
Precision Instrument for Low-Pressure Monitoring in HVAC and Industrial Systems
1. Introduction
The Dwyer 60-0-600 Pa differential pressure gauge is a versatile and reliable instrument engineered for measuring subtle pressure differentials in HVAC systems, cleanrooms, laboratories, and industrial processes. Manufactured by Dwyer Instruments, a global leader in pressure and flow measurement solutions, this gauge is renowned for its accuracy, ruggedness, and user-centric design. Its ability to detect low-pressure variations (as small as 10 Pa) makes it indispensable for applications such as filter monitoring, airflow balancing, and system diagnostics.
2. Key Features
2.1 Precision Measurement
Dual-Scale Display: Primary scale in Pascals (0-600 Pa) and secondary scale in inches of water column (0-2.5" w.c.) for compatibility with global engineering standards.
Accuracy: ±2% of full scale (±12 Pa) under standard conditions (20°C/68°F, 50% RH).
Resolution: 10 Pa (0.04" w.c.), enabling detection of minor pressure changes critical for system optimization.
2.2 Rugged Construction
Housing: UV-stabilized ABS plastic casing for resistance to environmental degradation, suitable for indoor and outdoor installations.
Sensing Element: 316L stainless steel diaphragm designed for long-term durability in corrosive or humid environments.
Window: Anti-glare polycarbonate lens for clear visibility under harsh lighting.
2.3 User-Friendly Design
Zero Adjustment: Field-recalibratable via a screwdriver-operated mechanism to correct drift caused by temperature or mechanical stress.
Mounting Flexibility: Dual integrated hooks for vertical or horizontal mounting on panels, ducts, or equipment surfaces.
Port Configuration: Dual ¼" NPT female ports for seamless integration with tubing or pressure taps.
2.4 Environmental Resilience
Operating Temperature: -20°F to +160°F (-29°C to +71°C).
Storage Temperature: -40°F to +185°F (-40°C to +85°C).
Humidity Tolerance: 0-95% RH (non-condensing).

4. Applications
4.1 HVAC Systems
Filter Monitoring: Track pressure drop across air filters to schedule timely maintenance and prevent energy waste.
Airflow Balancing: Optimize Variable Air Volume (VAV) systems to ensure consistent airflow in commercial buildings.
Fan Performance: Measure static pressure across supply/return fans to diagnose inefficiencies.
4.2 Cleanrooms and Laboratories
Room Pressurization: Maintain positive/negative pressure gradients in ISO Class 5-8 environments to prevent cross-contamination.
HEPA/ULPA Filter Testing: Validate filter integrity in pharmaceutical, semiconductor, or biomedical facilities.
4.3 Industrial Processes
Combustion Control: Monitor airflow in boilers, kilns, or furnaces to optimize fuel efficiency and emissions.
Dust Collection: Detect pressure differentials in baghouses or cyclones to prevent clogging and downtime.
4.4 Energy Management
Building Automation: Integrate with Building Management Systems (BMS) to dynamically adjust airflow and reduce energy consumption.
5. Installation and Calibration
5.1 Mounting Guidelines
Location: Install away from vibration sources (e.g., motors, pumps) and extreme temperature fluctuations.
Orientation: Mount vertically or horizontally using the dual hooks. Ensure the gauge is easily readable.
Tubing: Use ¼" ID flexible tubing (PVC, silicone, or polyurethane) to connect ports to pressure taps. Avoid sharp bends or kinks.
5.2 Calibration Procedure
Pre-Installation Zero Check: Isolate the gauge from pressure sources and verify the pointer aligns with the "0" mark.
Field Adjustment: Adjust the zero screw with a flathead screwdriver to correct minor drift caused by installation stress.
Post-Installation Validation: Recheck calibration after 24-48 hours of operation to account for environmental factors.
