Pressure Gauge Siphons
Pressure gauge siphons protect gauges from the effects of steam and other hot media by dissipating temperatures and also reducing the effects of rapid pressure surges. Coiled or pigtail siphons are installed water-filled and can collect condensate from steam inside the coil or pigtail portion of the siphon. They are designed with two threaded ends that separate the threaded process on one end with the gauge connected to the other. Instead of the traditional looped design, finned siphons have a reduced orifice with lateral fins that create maximum surface area to absorb heat transfer of steam before it reaches the gauge. They are commonly used in chemical, oil, gas, and pulp and paper applications.
Pigtail Siphons Rated Up To 1,000 psi
These pigtail siphons can be used at pressures up to 1,000 psi. Select siphons are made with lead-free or low-lead compliant brass material for applications involving drinking water. Pigtail or coiled siphons are installed water-filled, creating a barrier between high-temperature steam and sensitive gauge components. This increases the life of the pressure instrument, making it a good choice for low- and medium-pressure applications in industries ranging from power generation to oil and gas.

Finned Siphons Rated 1,000 psi & Above
These finned siphons are rated for applications 1,000 psi and above. The reduced orifice increases exposure of media in the siphon to the fins for added dissipation, making them a superior choice for high-temperature media in process, oil and gas, chemical, pulp, and paper industries.
