PG20 PRESSURE GUARD
Features
- BURST PROTECTION FOR PIPE SYSTEMS
- DRY RUN PROTECTION FOR PUMPS
- SAFETY CONTROL FOR PUMPS
Description
The Kelco PG20 Pressure Guard is a dedicated pressure operated safety device that can be set to
shut down a pump if the system pressure exceeds a preset level or falls below a preset level. It can
be set for over pressure protection, under pressure protection or both.
Introduction
In pumping systems it is often desirable to protect pipework and equipment against excess pressure. For example, a high head
bore pump can easily burst low class poly pipe if the standing water level in a bore is unusually high. Pumps can also benefit
from dry run protection. A simple transfer pump can be badly damaged if run dry. A dedicated pressure trip switch that shuts
down a pump on either excessively high or low pressure or on no pressure is a great benefit in many applications.
More complicated pumping systems that may have pressure switches or any type of controls will benefit from a dedicated
pressure trip switch that acts as a guard over the whole system and shuts down the process if pressure rises or falls beyond
settable levels.
