The High-Quality Liquid Filled Vacuum Pressure Gauge is a versatile and efficient instrument designed to measure both water pressure and air pressure. It is specially designed to accurately measure pressures that are lower than the ambient atmospheric pressure, which is set as the zero point and is represented in negative values.
One of the key features of this pressure gauge is its wide pressure range. It can measure pressures from -100 kpa (-15 psi) to 0 kpa, making it suitable for a variety of applications. Whether you need to measure the pressure of liquids or gases, this gauge has got you covered.
The body of the pressure gauge is constructed with stainless steel, ensuring durability and resistance to corrosion. Stainless steel is a popular choice for industrial applications due to its strength and ability to withstand harsh environments. With a stainless steel housing, this pressure gauge is built to last.
- 63mm diameter Dial / Face
- Bottom Entry with 6mm (1/4″) Brass Tapered BSP Thread
- Glycerine Filled
- Stainless Steel Case
- Application: Pressure measurement in water lines, pumps and most general applications
The function of this pressure gauge is dual scale, displaying both kpa and PSI units. This makes it convenient for users who prefer one unit over the other or need to convert between the two. The glycerine filling inside the gauge helps dampen vibrations and ensures accurate readings.
The connection of this pressure gauge is 1/4 BSP bottom entry. BSP, or British Standard Pipe, is a common thread standard used in many industries. The bottom entry design allows for easy installation and connection to the system being measured.
In terms of certifications, this pressure gauge is factory-accredited with CE, ISO 9001, and TUV. These certifications ensure that the gauge meets quality and safety standards, giving users peace of mind when using this instrument.
The model range of this liquid-filled pressure gauge is VACLF-100, with a pressure range of -100 to 0 kpa. It has a size of 63mm (2 1/2), which is a standard size for many pressure gauges. The accuracy of the gauge is rated at +/- 2.5%, ensuring reliable and precise measurements.
The work pressure of the gauge is 3/4 of full scale, meaning it can safely handle pressures up to 3/4 of the maximum range. The fluctuating pressure limit is 2/3 of the full scale, indicating the maximum pressure that can be reliably measured under fluctuating conditions. For short periods of time, the pressure gauge can handle pressures up to the full scale.
The operating temperature range for this gauge is -10°C to 60°C, allowing it to be used in a wide range of environments. It is compatible with both gases and liquids, making it suitable for various applications.
