About Dwyer Instruments

Dwyer Instruments' catalogue includes a wide range of pressure, flow, temperature, level and air quality measurement instruments. The brand's Magnehelic differential pressure gages provide a quick indication of air or noncorrosive gas pressures (either positive, negative or differential). They feature a rugged design to resist shocks, vibrations & overpressures and a bezel fitting to provide easy flush mounting in panels. These Dwyer differential pressure gages come with a precision litho-printed scale for easy reading and moulded rubber pointer stops to prevent over-travel. They are integrated with a silicon rubber diaphragm to support the front & rear plates and prevent damage due to overpressures. The brand's digital handheld manometers feature a single-button auto-zero function that offers easy on-site calibration and reset facilities. They further come equipped with an extruded aluminium housing to withstand temperatures up to 140 degrees F. These handheld manometers are suitable for measuring positive, negative and differential pressures with +/-0.10% full-scale accuracy.

Major Trade Names

2000 Series Magnehelic Differential Pressure Gages

2000 Series Magnehelic Differential Pressure Gages

They provide simple, frictionless movement for quickly indicating positive, negative (vacuum) & differential air or non-corrosive gas pressures. They are shock, vibration, water & over-pressure resistant.

DM Series DigiMag Differential Pressure Transmitters

DM Series DigiMag Differential Pressure Transmitters

They detect the pressure of air and compatible gases and provide a 4 - 20mA output signal. The polycarbonate moulded housing has integral pressure connections, which saves time during installation. It is made to fit in the same diameter cutout as a standard Magnehelic gauge.

RPMC Series StabiliSENSE Critical Room Pressure Monitors

RPMC Series StabiliSENSE Critical Room Pressure Monitors

These monitors are ideal for critical low differential pressure applications requiring precise pressure monitoring. They can be configured to monitor positive or negative pressure in protected and clean areas. They allow access to pressure, security, calibration and alarm configuration.

VF SERIES Visi-Float Acrylic Flowmeters

VF SERIES Visi-Float Acrylic Flowmeters

These precision machined, direct reading flowmeters have a clear acrylic body and are suitable for both gas & liquid applications. They are available with 2 inch (51 mm) and 4 inch (102 mm) scales, as well as optional precision metering valves.

DigiMag Differential Pressure Transmitters

DigiMag Differential Pressure Transmitters

These transmitters can detect air and non-combustible gas pressures. Their polycarbonate moulded housing is integrated with pressure connection points to save time during installation. They have an easy-to-read LCD for easy pressure readings display.

StabiliSENSE Critical Room Pressure Monitors

StabiliSENSE Critical Room Pressure Monitors

These monitors are ideal for critical low-differential pressure applications requiring precise pressure monitoring. They can be configured to monitor positive or negative pressure in protected and clean areas. These units have a password-protected setup menu and visual LED alarms.

Visi-Float Acrylic Flowmeters

Frequently Asked Questions

Can standard Magnehelic gauges be installed outdoors?

Yes, their front covers are sealed with O-rings. When installing indoors, the pressure connections leading downward from the gauge should be provided maximum protection from the elements.

Why must Dwyer pressure switches be mounted with the diaphragm in the vertical plane?

The diaphragm can sag in planes other than the vertical plane, causing a shift in set-point or a change in the adjustable set-point range. Even at the smallest set-points, the switch may fail to reset. This is the same phenomenon that causes inaccuracy in Magnehelic and Capsuhelic gauges when they are not mounted vertically.

Are Dwyer Instruments products calibrated?

Yes, Dwyer Instruments products are pre-calibrated for applications like HVAC, industrial processes and laboratories to provide accurate measurement readings.

What products does Dwyer Instruments offer?

Dwyer Instruments offers a wide range of products for various application needs, including:

  • Pressure instruments: Gauges, switches, transmitters and accessories for measuring pressure levels in gases, liquids and vapours.
  • Flow instruments: Products like flow meters, flow switches and flow indicators are available for measuring and indicating the flow rate of liquids and gases in different applications.
  • Temperature instruments: Thermometers, thermocouples, thermowells and RTDs for measuring temperature in various processes.
  • Level instruments: Level switches, level transmitters and level gauges for accurately measuring liquid levels in tanks and vessels.
  • Air quality instruments: Units like humidity sensors, temperature sensors and indoor air quality monitors for checking the air quality in various systems.

How to carry Dwyer testing instruments?

Dwyer carrying cases are designed to keep the valuable test instruments safe while transportation. These units are made of nylon for weather resistance and feature internal soft padding for maximum protection against shocks and impact blows.

How to maintain Dwyer Instruments 616KD differential pressure transmitters?

  • Regularly inspect the transmitters for physical damage, loose connections, or leaks, paying attention to pressure and electrical connections.
  • Perform periodic calibration to ensure accuracy by adjusting the zero and span settings according to the manufacturer's instructions.
  • Keep the transmitters clean by gently wiping the surfaces with a soft cloth or brush, avoiding harsh chemicals.
  • Protect the transmitters from environmental factors, such as extreme temperatures or moisture, using weatherproof enclosures or other appropriate measures.
  • Check electrical connections for tightness and corrosion, addressing any issues promptly.

What are the points to consider while installing a Dwyer pressure transducer / transmitter?

  • During installation, it is essential to ensure that both the device's and the process's sealing surfaces are thoroughly cleaned and undamaged. To prevent any potential leaks, it is crucial to use the appropriate tool when screwing or unscrewing the device.
  • It is important to exercise caution and avoid over-tightening, as this can result in inaccurate test results and potential thread breakage, leading to leaks. By ensuring proper tightness, the performance of the transmitters will not be compromised, allowing for reliable operation without leaks.
