Gauges, Snubbers,Rupture Discs

Gauges

NLB's high-pressure, heavy-duty pressure gauges are oil-filled and hermetically sealed. A throttle screw helps protect the gauge from erratic pressure surges. Standard gauges have bottom-mount connection with 4-1/4” (11 cm) faces. Certified gauges are available.

Models 2008 and 3008 display both English and metric units of measurement.
Model 2007 (not shown) is a 3,000 psi (210 bar) working pressure gauge with 1/2” NPT connection.

 

Snubbers

NLB Snubbers absorb the system pressure pulses that can cause gauge fluctuations. This enhances accuracy and prolongs gauge life.


Model Max. Pressure Inlet Connection
2010 10,000 psi (700 bar) 1/2” NPT Male
BM13613* 10,000 psi (700 bar) 1-1/8” - 12
3010 20,000 psi (1,400 bar) 9/16” MP Nipple
BM13614* 20,000 psi (1,400 bar) 1-1/8” - 12

*Snubber kit used with discharge manifolds or pressure reducing stations featuring NLB’s “BV” family of By-Pass Valves

Rupture Disc Assemblies

Each NLB high-pressure pump unit is equipped with a safety rupture disc, which relieves pressure on the system in the event of a spike above the maximum operating pressure of the unit. The replaceable discs are available with pressure ratings from 1,000 to 20,000 psi (70 to 1,400 bar). Rupture disc assemblies should always be used with a primary pressure relief valve or by-pass valve.

Two models are available: NSP-2000 is used in most pumps built before September, 1996, and CM3557 in newer pumps. Both use the rupture disc detailed in chart.
