Vibration-Resistant Pressure Gauges for Chemicals

Bottom Connection

These gauges have a glycerin-filled dial that reduces needle flutter for precise readings in high-vibration applications reaching 2,000 psi. A 316 stainless steel guard, also known as an isolator, protects the gauge from damage caused by corrosive chemicals. Use them with pumps, filters, regulators, and in process lines to measure and display pressure.

Low-Pressure Gauges for Chemicals

With 316 Stainless Steel Guard

Bottom Connection (Steel Guard)

A plastic or stainless steel guard, also known as an isolator, protects the gauge from damage caused by corrosive chemicals. Use them with pumps, filters, regulators, and in process lines to measure and display pressures.

Polypropylene and 316 stainless steel guards are more chemical resistant than PVC and CPVC guards.

Sanitary Gauge Guards

Keeping corrosive substances from touching pressure gauges used in food-processing and pharmaceutical plants, these guards have a sanitary design. Made of 316 stainless steel, they won’t rust from frequent washdowns with harsh cleaners and sanitizers. They have continuously-welded seams and polished surfaces, so there aren’t any pits for bacteria to grow in. Removing them for cleaning and maintenance is easy thanks to their quick-clamp connection, which is sometimes called a tri-clamp.

Also known as isolators and diaphragm seals, these guards have a 316 stainless steel gasket to shield the pressure gauges from corrosion. Before use, fill the guards with fluid such as glycerin or silicone that’s suitable for food contact.

Gauge Guards

316 Stainless Steel Guard

316 Stainless Steel Guard With Drain Port

Also known as isolators or diaphragm seals, these protect gauges from corrosive process media. Fill guards with hydraulic oil (not included) before use.

316 stainless steel guards provide excellent corrosion and chemical resistance and can handle higher temperatures and pressures than plastic guards.

Guards with drain port allow you to remove process media.

Chemical-Resistant Vertical-Mount Liquid-Level Gauges for Tanks

With a stainless steel float and float rod, these gauges resist corroding from chemicals. Their indicator moves up as your tank fills. Check the indicator against the graduation marks to see how full your tank is and if you need to fill or drain it. Plastic protects the indicator's movement, saving you from inaccurate readings.

Alarms can be set to flash and sound at levels critical to your system.

Remote-reading displays let you check readings from up to 100 ft. away. They have an alarm that sounds when the level is too high or too low.
