Applications
SF6 Density Monitor monitoring in closed SF6 gas tanks
Special features
■ Temperature-compensated pressure gauge with Bourdon tube
■ Suitable for outdoor use
■ Wetted parts from stainless steel
■ Local readout with alarm contacts
■ Hermetically leak-tight, therefore no negative impact by
atmospheric pressure fluctuations and differences in altitude
Description
SF6 Density Monitors are an economical and reliable Conventional pressure gauges are not suitable here as
way to monitor SF6 gas density and leakage over a the gas pressure changes depending on the ambient

hermetically sealed.
SF6 Density Monitor measuring instruments provide
reliable warnings against dangerously low gas
concentrations even in extreme environmental
conditions. If the gas density decreases due to a
leakage the magnetic snap-action contacts, which are
actuated by the pointer, switch reliably and with
repeatable accuracy.
