Type 640A is designed for a working pressure of up to 20 barg and can be easily mounted between flanges according to ASME B16.5 Class 150 lbs RF. Due to its compact design, this model is ideally suited for retrofitting existing systems – even in tight spaces. Even with larger nominal sizes, working pressures of 20 barg and more can be achieved with type 640A.
The standard version with borosilicate glass is suitable for working temperatures of up to 280 °C.
