Hey guys,
I've looked around some other threads and other links that Google has spewed back at me, but I thought I'd double check with piping experts here.
It's a very simple query from a non-piping engineer (I'm automation). We have a tank with an EN 1092-1 nozzle, named K1, of size = DN80. It's annotated as PN10.
I have specified a differential pressure level transmitter on the tank, but the instrument vendor has indicated, that the lowest PN rating they can meet is PN40.
I was trying to verify if I can mate the instrument with the flange on the tank (PN10 vs PN40 for 80mm flange, dimensionally-speaking).
Can someone confirm, that having two different PN-rated flanges, but of the same dimension, will work?
Thank you!
