    About Pressure Gauges
    industrial info icon

    Find a gauge with the right connection material and dial type—many with traceable calibration certificates.

    Gas Pressure Gauges

    Use these gauges with pumps, filters, regulators, and in process lines to monitor the pressure of compressed gas. Mount them with the dial face upright. Gauges for use with acetylene can also be used in welding applications.

    Low-Pressure Differential Gauges with U-Tube

    Also known as manometers, these gauges come with indicating liquid that moves up and down two columns—the difference in height between them is your pressure. They are commonly used to indicate clogged filters.

    Tank-Mount Pressure-Regulating Valves for Fuel Gases

    Attach these valves to acetylene, hydrogen, methane, propane, or propylene tanks to reduce a high inlet pressure to a lower, stable outlet pressure. They have Compressed Gas Association (CGA) numbered inlet fittings for secure connections to compressed gas tanks. Choose a valve with the same CGA number as your tank and other system components. Valves come with a gauge to monitor outlet pressure and a gauge to monitor inlet pressure from the tank.
    Choose a valve with a maximum outlet pressure that’s approximately twice your application’s normal operating pressure. Your operating pressure should never exceed 75% of the valve’s maximum outlet pressure.

    Single-stage valves reduce pressure in one step, which causes the outlet pressure to fluctuate slightly as you empty the tank. They’re best for applications where a constant outlet pressure isn’t critical.
    Brass Body—Valves with a brass body have a longer service life than valves with a brass and steel body.
    Stainless Steel Diaphragm—Valves with a stainless steel diaphragm can withstand harsh environments.

    Two-stage valves progressively reduce pressure over two steps for more consistent outlet pressure at all times. They’re often used in applications that require a constant outlet pressure regardless of the tank level.

    With Knob

    Install these valves directly in gas distribution pipelines for acetylene, hydrogen, or propane. They automatically reduce a high inlet pressure to a lower, stable outlet pressure. Valves have two outlets to fit various pipe configurations and come with a plug to close the unused outlet. The gauge monitors outlet pressure. All valves are single stage and reduce pressure in one step, which causes the outlet pressure to fluctuate.
    Choose a valve with a maximum outlet pressure that’s approximately twice your application’s normal operating pressure. Your operating pressure should never exceed 75% of the valve’s maximum outlet pressure.
