Description of Diaphragm Seals
Diaphragm seals are traditionally used when a standard pressure transmitter should not be exposed to the
process pressure directly. Diaphragm seals typically protect the pressure transmitter from one or more
damaging aspects of the process media. Consideration for using a diaphragm seal should be made in the
following circumstances.
process pressure directly. Diaphragm seals typically protect the pressure transmitter from one or more
damaging aspects of the process media. Consideration for using a diaphragm seal should be made in the
following circumstances.
• High Process Temperature
• Process Media is Viscous or Contains Suspended Solids
• Process Media is Subject to Solidifying
• Process Media is Corrosive
• Process

The following diaphragm seals are standard from Honeywell (please call your local salesperson if you do not see
the product you need for your application):

Flush Flange Seals can be used with
differential, gauge and absolute pressure transmitters
and are available with 3” ANSI Class 150, ANSI Class
300 and DIN DN80-PN40 process connections. Flush
flange seals can also be provided with Lowers.
Lowers are essentially calibration rings, which allow
flushing connections if needed – see Figure 31.
