160mm Glycerine Filled Pressure Gauges

These 160 mm glycerine-filled gauges provide damped mechanical pressure indication for fixed plant installations where readings may need to be viewed from further away, particularly where vibration makes a dry pointer difficult to follow.

Choosing 160mm Glycerine Filled Pressure Gauges

These 160 mm glycerine-filled gauges provide damped mechanical pressure indication for fixed plant installations where readings may need to be viewed from further away, particularly where vibration makes a dry pointer difficult to follow.

Liquid filling steadies pointer movement without improving the instrument’s rated accuracy or overload limit. The listed accuracy is 1%. Select compatible wetted materials for the application.

Allow space around the larger case and select the scale range to suit expected operating pressure. Bottom- and back-entry models support different mounting positions; match the existing thread before ordering.

Selecting a 160 mm Gauge

Allow space around the larger case and select the scale range to suit expected operating pressure. Bottom- and back-entry models support different mounting positions; match the existing thread before ordering.

Damped Indication

Glycerine filling reduces pointer flutter but does not improve stated accuracy.

1% Accuracy

The stated accuracy is 1%. Compare the allowable error at the selected full scale with your measurement requirement.

Installation Check

Confirm the process connection, mounting position and expected pressure conditions.

Applications

Suitable for local indication, replacement and equipment applications where the 160 mm format and glycerine-filled construction suit the duty.

Large plant displays

Provide a prominent pressure indication at the operating position.

Pumps and compressors

Use filled indication where operating vibration affects readability.

Replacement instruments

Check the scale, entry position and connection against the original gauge.

Equipment checks

Use the specified accuracy to decide whether the gauge suits the readings being checked.

How to Choose

Liquid filling steadies pointer movement without improving the instrument’s rated accuracy or overload limit. The listed accuracy is 1%. Select compatible wetted materials for the application.

Confirm the range

Cover normal operation and expected peaks while keeping the required readings easy to interpret.

Check the medium

Confirm the wetted materials and temperature limits for the process fluid or gas.

Check the 160 mm fit

Check support, clearance and pipework layout before fitting the larger instrument.

Match the connection

Check the exact thread and the entry position offered by the selected product.

Frequently asked questions

Practical answers to help with selection and replacement.

What is the accuracy of these 160 mm gauges?

The listed models are specified at 1% accuracy. Confirm the allowable error for the selected span and operating conditions.

Why choose a 160 mm dial?

The 160 mm format prioritises visibility, so allow enough room for the case and its mounting.

Does filling protect against every pressure surge?

No. The selected range and overload capability must still suit the system; additional protection may be needed.

Will it fit an existing gauge connection?

Check the thread form and size, entry position and case dimensions. Matching the dial diameter alone is not enough.
