Ultra-pure Zero Deadleg Gauge Guards / Diaphragm Seals / Instrument Isolators
Series GGMU

• Constructed of non-contaminating, unpigmented virgin natural polypropylene or Kynar� PVDF (PVC also available).
• In-line design eliminates "dead leg" that can harbor bacterial growth and other contamination.
• Spigot connections attach with union nuts to enable easy installation, service. (Special Plast-O-Pure gasket assures crevice-free, ultrapure seal to spigot connectors)
• Flexible elastomer spool assures accurate readings for pressure or vacuum.
• ±2% accuracy. Will handle most applications.
• Use with gauges, transducers, and pressure switches.
• Bleed port assures trouble-free filling.

Series GGMU is designed for ultra-pure liquid systems and specifically to eliminate piping dead leg that can harbor bacterial growth or other contaminants. In addition, the basic function of the GGMU is to prevent liquid from coming in contact with the pressure gauge or other instrument, yet it still maintains the accuracy of the gauge or instrument.

� Food grade spool material available upon request.

� Various piping connectors are available to adapt to virtually any connection system existing today.

A Carefully Engineered Gauge Guard:

The design utilizes a flexible elastomer spool which separates process liquid from gauge or instrument fill liquid. This spool accurately transmits pressure or vacuum from the process liquid to the instrument fill liquid, which in turn registers on the gauge or instrument. A bleed plug enables the gauge guard to be totally and solidly filled with liquid, thereby eliminating air bubbles which would decrease accuracy of pressure reading. All sealing points of spool and end connectors are sanitary style to eliminate the possibility of any small wetted cavities within the assembly.

Materials of Construction:

身体和外部接触液体的部件未染色的,natural polypropylene. Internal wetted parts are choice of polypro, PVDF, or PVC. Elastomers (spool and Plast-O-Pure gasket) are available in Viton� or EPDM.

Dimensions:

The overall "G" dimension (see the line drawing above) will vary according to which end connectors are selected. Standard end connectors are Metric and Schedule 80. End Connectors can also be made to custom lengths.

Model Numbers and Specifications:

Part numbers are determined in two steps. The prefix is always "GGMU". The first step is to build the model number from the chart below...

...for instance, an all-polypro GGMU with Viton seals and a gauge with 100 PSI maximum would begin: GGMUV100-PP. To complete the part number, continue by adding pipe size and connection type from the next chart...

...completing the example above with 1/2" "Asahi" piping, the full part number is now GGMUV100-PP-A1. If you would like assistance in determining the proper part number, or have any other questions, please contact our Technical Group at (973) 256-3000 8 am - 6 pm EST.
