possible Causes
Leakage around gasketing, covers,
seams, piping and tubing connections,
conduit connections and electrical
conduit seals of the enclosure.
Insufficient enclosure leakage or
opening of the venturi orifice is crimped
too small.
Application involves a small, tightly
sealed enclosure and/or a fluctuating
protective gas supply.
Pressure switch is out of calibration.
Persisting problems
Corrective action
Tighten enclosure latches. Where
tightening is not feasible, and
gasketing materials are not practical,
holes or gaps can be closed with
silicone sealant applied from inside
the protected enclosure.
Remove the orifice, cut off the
crimped end and ream the tube, then
recrimp and reinstall the tube to note
effect. As tube is shortened, reamed,
and recrimped, sensitivity decreases,
allowing easier adjustment of setpoint
on the enclosure.
Pre-regulate the protective gas supply
upstream of the enclosure protection
system to 5 psi maximum.
For dramatic fluctuations in the
protective gas supply, it may be
neccessary to utilize a self-relieving
low flow precision regulator to pre-
regulate the protective gas supply.
Calibrate by slowly adjusting
counterclockwise to decrease the
setpoint, and clockwise to raise the
setpoint. (Do not attempt to calibrate
the switch until all efforts to make the
switch respond properly have failed)
