Pressure gauges and transmitters, commonly found in fluid process control operations, are vulnerable to damage from transient spikes in system pressure that may range beyond the instrument's working range. These pressure spikes can impact instrument calibration, or even render the instrument or gauge inoperative. The cost of replacing gauges or transmitters is substantial enough to warrant the use of protective devices to prevent exposure to pressure spikes.

Mid-West Instruments manufactures a line of pressure limiting valves specifically intended for use with pressure gauges and transmitters. The Model 200 pressure limiting valve prevents instrument over-range and has an adjustable needle valve to dampen pulsation. The valve and be used with all types of instruments and pressure gauges, is suitable for mounting in any position, and is available in a range of materials for body and seals.
