PD8100 Series 2019

Product catalog summary
Overview: The PD8100 Series Pulsation Dampener is designed to eliminate pointer flutter on pressure indicating Swichgage® devices, which are affected by pulsating pressure from reciprocating pumps or compressors. This series enhances the accuracy of pressure indication and control, reduces wear on geared movements, and extends the life of pressure indicating instruments.
Specifications: The PD8100 Series is available in various materials to meet different pressure and environmental requirements:
  • PD8183: Brass wetted parts, rated to 3000 psi (20.68 MPa) [206.80 bar]
  • PD8184: Carbon steel wetted parts, rated to 5000 psi (34.47 MPa) [344.70 bar]
  • PD8185: 303 stainless steel wetted parts, rated to 10000 psi (68.95 MPa) [689.50 bar]
  • PD8190: 316 stainless steel wetted parts, rated to 10000 psi (68.95 MPa) [689.50 bar], meets NACE standard MR-01-75 for direct exposure to H2S
Operating temperature ranges from -15° to 400° F (-26° to 204° C). Shipping weight is 2 lbs. (0.9 kg) with dimensions of 4 3/4 x 4 3/4 x 3 1/4 in. (121 x 121 x 83 mm).
Limitations: The PD8100 Series is not intended for use on oxygen or liquid oxygen applications and should not be used as a shutoff valve.
Design Features: The dampener is constructed with a large diameter valve stem wheel for easy adjustment and includes clearly printed operating instructions. It is machined from 1 3/8-inch (35 mm) hex bar stock with a two-degree taper on the valve and stem to ensure positive dampening.
Installation and Ordering: The PD8100 Series can be mounted directly below the OPLFS Pressure Swichgage. It is important to use dope or Teflon tape on connection threads and avoid blocking the inlet orifice. Various connection sizes are available, and specific part numbers correspond to different configurations and materials.
Applications: Recommended for use on piston pumps and compressors to eliminate pointer contact flutter and gage wear, as demonstrated in the MurphyMatic® Compressor Panel.

PD8100 Series 2019-1

Pulsation Dampener PD8100 Series The PD8100 Series eliminates pointer flutter on pressure indicating Swichgage® devices which are subject to pulsating pressure from reciprocating pumps or compressors. It also allows a close setting of high and low contact points providing for more accurate pressure indication and control of equipment. The PD8100 Series decreases wear on geared movements and increases the life of pressure indicating instruments by eliminating excessive gage strain and unnecessary movement, a necessity which quickly pays for itself by protecting any pressure indicating and control instrument which is subject to pulsation. PD8100 SERIES IS NOT FOR USE ON OXYGEN OR LIQUID OXYGEN APPLICATIONS. The PD8100 is quality built with a large diameter valve stem wheel for ease of adjustment and features clearly printed operating instructions. Machined from 1 3/8-inch (35 mm) hex bar stock, a two degree taper on the valve and stem assure positive dampening. It’s available in brass, carbon steel, 303 stainless steel or 316 stainless steel to meet pressure and environmental requirements with either 1/2 NPT or 1/4 NPT inlet connections. NOT INTENDED FOR USE AS A SHUTOFF VALVE Dimensions Specifications See How to Order section for available inlet and outlet connections. PD8183: All wetted parts are brass. Rated to 3000 psi (20.68 MPa) [206.80 bar] PD8184: All wetted parts are carbon steel. Rated to 5000 psi (34.47 MPa) [344.70 bar] PD8185: All wetted parts are 303 stainless steel.
