Description of the
pressure gauge cock
Pressure gauge cocks provide the opportunity to either vent
the connected pressure gauge according to the position of the handle (venting
position), i.e. put it into a pressure-free state, or to vent the pressure
measuring instrument under pressure (operating position) or to let the pressure
medium escape (blow position). For pressures higher than those in the data
sheet, pressure gauge valve must be used.
Test connection
version
Pressure gauge cock with test connection are intended for
the simultaneous connection of operating pressure measuring instruments and
test connection pressure gauges to the pressure pipeline.
With this version of the pressure gauge cock, the third
route, which leads to the outside at the standard version, is used asconnection
for a test connection pressure gauge. A fourth position of the handle enables
the simultaneous connection of the operating and the test connection pressure gauges
to the pressure pipeline.
