🔍 Key Concepts

• Bourdon tube pressure gage construction and how it senses pressure • How steam temperature can damage or affect a metal pressure element • Typical mechanical methods of isolating or cooling the pressure element from live steam

💭 Think About

• Think about what part of a steam system is usually placed in front of a pressure gage to reduce temperature and protect the sensing element. • Which option describes a device or shape that would allow steam to cool and partially condense before it reaches the Bourdon tube? • Which choice sounds like a common, simple piping arrangement rather than a complex or flexible sealing element?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which option represents a piping configuration rather than an added valve, trap, or flexible seal. • Ask yourself which device is routinely seen on steam pressure gage lines in engine rooms and boiler rooms to cool and/or condense steam. • Eliminate any options that are primarily used for condensate removal or for flexible sealing, rather than for cooling the steam before it reaches the gage.
