Pick up false statement about pressure measurements :
|
A. |
low pressure is normally measured by manometers |
B.
|
medium pressure by diaphragms or bellows |
C.
|
medium and high pressure by Bourdon gauge
|
D.
|
all pressures by transducers
|
|
Answer: Option E
Explanation:
|
26. |
Pressure gauges are never connected directly to live steam because :
|
A. |
the tubes or bellows which operate them would be overheated, causing serious error and damage |
B.
|
steam if leaks, can cause serious injuries to operators |
C.
|
entry of steam would cause static head error
|
D.
|
parts of pressure gauge can't withstand temperature of steam
|
|
Answer: Option A
Explanation:
|
27. |
A siphon or loop in the connecting pipe is interposed as close as possible to the pressure gauge so that:
|
A. |
steam can condense to form a seal of water to fill the tube or bellows at the pressure being measured |
B.
|
air or vapour collection is avoided |
C.
|
moisture formed in pipe can be drained
|
D.
|
static head errors are eliminated
|
|
Answer: Option A
Explanation:
|
28. |
When the pressure medium to be measured is air or gas, the pipe is made to rise continuously to the gauge, so that:
|
A. |
no air or vapour can collect in pipe |
B.
|
any moisture can be drained ' |
C.
|
moisture does not come in contact with elements of sensor/gauge
|
D.
|
moisture can condense to form seal of water
|
|
Answer: Option B
Explanation:
|
29. |
