Proper Way to Install Low Pressure Gauge Next to Vapor Stud

Derek_B

Do I need to put the low pressure gauge on a pigtail, or can I screw it directly into the tee next to the vapor stud? Any suggestions are welcome.

while not a necessity,

If you have them both on the same pig, if it clogs, both will be offline. Are you using a ptrol and the req'd 30psi gauge on a different pig? The way I set mine up was to have 1 pig for the low psi gauge and vstat with a shut off in line to isolate them during a blowdown, and another pig with the 30 psi gauge and my ptrol wired as a safety high limit switch if the vstat ever fails, and to take over during blowdown when the vstat is out of the equation.
