Connection Socket Component – Machinery and Equipment Manufacturing

Component Specifications

Definition

A mechanical interface component designed to connect pressure gauges to process systems, featuring standardized threads, sealing surfaces, and pressure containment capabilities. It ensures accurate pressure transmission while preventing leaks and maintaining system integrity under varying operational conditions.

Working Principle

Provides a sealed mechanical interface using threaded connections and gasket/sealing surfaces to transmit fluid pressure from the process line to the pressure gauge bourdon tube or sensing element while preventing leakage and maintaining pressure integrity.

Materials

Stainless Steel 316L, Brass C36000, or Carbon Steel with corrosion-resistant plating; Sealing materials: PTFE, Viton, or Buna-N gaskets

Technical Parameters

Finish Electropolished or Passivated
Seal Type Gasket or O-ring
Thread Type NPT, BSP, or Metric
Connection Size 1/4", 1/2", or 3/8"
Pressure Rating 0-1000 psi (0-69 bar)
Temperature Range -20°C to 120°C

Standards

ISO 1179, DIN 3852, ASME B1.20.1

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the main types of pressure gauge connection sockets?

The main types include NPT (National Pipe Thread), BSP (British Standard Pipe), and metric threaded sockets, each with specific sealing methods and regional preferences.

How do I prevent leaks in pressure gauge connections?

Use proper thread sealant (PTFE tape or liquid thread sealant), ensure correct torque during installation, and verify gasket/O-ring integrity. Regular maintenance checks are essential.

Can different brand sockets be interchangeable?

Yes, if they follow the same thread standards (ISO, DIN, ASME) and have matching pressure/temperature ratings, but material compatibility must be verified for specific applications.

Can I contact factories directly?

Yes, each factory profile provides direct contact information.
