The WIKA XSEL™ process pressure gauge series has been designed for pressure applications found in today’s grueling refining, petrochemical and chemical plants. Over the last few years, few upgrades have been done in processing plants, yet producers have been required to increase capacity with existing equipment. Due to this strain, plants have increased stress on their systems and operating units. Higher pulsating pressures and heavy mechanically induced vibrations are translating to all areas of the processing equipment, especially pressure instrumentation.
WIKA knows that a widely accepted solution for these extreme environments is a liquid filled pressure gauge. However, over the years of working with large processing plants through WIKA's Best Practice Instrument Review program, we have found that many plants unknowingly still use a dry case pressure gauge in many applications that require a higher degree of protection. Sometimes these applications result in pressure gauges with off-zero pointers, missing or broken pointers and worn pressure systems.
The XSEL™ process pressure gauge series from WIKA is designed specifically to solve these application issues. Our state-of-the-art pressure system design and rugged movement makes our pressure gauge the best choice for many applications in the plant environment. The XSEL™ pressure gauge family includes stainless steel, Monel and copper alloy models and the entire family offers a new standard of excellence in innovation, performance, safety, quality, availability and value.
