A pressure gauge is a mechanical or electronic device used to measure the pressure of liquids or gases in a closed system. With a measuring range from 0 to 0.16 MPa, this gauge is designed for low-pressure measurement, suitable for various industrial and civil applications.
Key Features
- High Accuracy: Featuring a narrow measuring range (only 0.16 MPa), the pointer moves over a wider range, increasing accuracy and readability compared to gauges with larger ranges.
- Transparent, Easy-to-Observe Dial: Made of tempered glass or clear plastic, allowing users to easily view the indicator needle and scale divisions.
- Durable Construction: Typically features a stainless steel or alloy housing with good corrosion and impact resistance. The bourdon tube is made of brass or stainless steel for durability and sensitivity.
- Diverse Connection Standards: Various thread connections (such as male, female, G1/4", NPT1/4", etc.) allow easy installation into piping systems.
- Cost-Effective: Lower cost compared to large-range or electronic gauges, ideal for straightforward applications.
Applications
- Water Supply Systems: Measuring pressure in domestic or industrial water supply pipes to ensure stable pressure.
- Pneumatic Systems: Measuring compressed air pressure in tanks and pipes to control working pressure.
- Pumps: Monitoring output pressure of industrial and civil water pumps.
- Boiler Systems: Measuring low-pressure steam in boilers.
- Medical and Laboratory Equipment: Measuring pressure in medical devices like oxygen concentrators or pressure-controlled experiments.
Operating Notes
- Select the Right Range: Working pressure should ideally fall within 50% to 70% of the gauge's full scale for optimal accuracy and longevity.
- Proper Installation: Install vertically with correct threading without applying excessive force.
- Protect from Vibration and High Temperatures: Avoid installing in areas with severe vibration or excessive ambient temperatures.
- Periodic Calibration: Regularly calibrate to ensure sustained measurement accuracy.
