Subject:

SETPOINT DRIFT - BARKSDALE PRESSURE SWITCllES *

-l

e. f i

Recently there has been a number of LERs on Barksdale pressure switches; {

six during 1981, 21 since January 1978. Our commitment to training on ,

these switches has been strong and continuous; therefore, we do not /,

believe this is the problem. )

Our attention was turned to the switch and the application to which it Il i

was being used. Attachment 1 plots the setpoint drift of 4 of these j switches for a period of 4 years. It is readily obvious these switches m are cyclic, being high in the warm months and low in the cold months. }l Attachments 2 and 3 provide the specifications for the Barksdale pj B2T-A12SS switch. The important characteristics f or PS-1-81, 91 are: $

Element type: Bourdon Tube

  • j f

Proof Pressure: 1800 psig ,  ;

Rated Accuracy: tl% or 12 psig '

. I Setpoint: 154 psig - recently changed from 160 psig ]

Adjustable Range: 77-1200 psig It would appear based on Attachments 2 and 3, the switch would perfonn e very reliably. However, the reason it does not becomes apparent when Attachment 4 is reviewed. The following conclusions can be drawn from Attachment 4:

1. For our application, a piston switch is better than a I diaphrage or bourdon tube. Our experience indicates.

{

the piston type Static-0-Ring to be a very reliable ^ _

r and accurate switch. -

t

2. Bourdon tube switches are extremely sensitive to prosess 5 surges. In our application, snubbers have been in-stalled to help alleviate this deficiency.
3. For greatest accurt_y, the setpoint should fall b the upper 65% oC the adjustable range. For the most f avorable life iactor the setpoint should be in the lower 65% of the adjustable range. For PS-1-81, 91:

Span = 1123 and setpoint (% Span) = 13.7%.

This places these swi:ches in the lower portion of Zone C, which is FAIR accuracy and EXCELLENT life.

Our experience proves this correct. Other switches we have drif t problems with are PS-68-93, 94. They have setpoints of 108 psig or setpoint (% span) is 9.6%. ,

In the final analysis, one can only conclude a misapplication of these switches, both in switch type and % of adjustable range. We recognized this years ago and DCR 1398 (12/7/77) was initiated. EN DES does not have an implementation date for DCR 1398 as it now is tied to 79-01B and environmental qualifications. In the interim we are investigating an improved switch and will keep you informed.
