160mm Back Entry Glycerine Filled Pressure Gauge


160mm Back Entry Glycerine Filled Pressure Gauge

The 160mm Back Entry Glycerine Filled Pressure Gauge from GNW Instrumentation provides local pressure indication for industrial equipment, pipework, machinery and maintenance replacement duties. Its large 160mm dial gives operators and engineers a practical reading point where a glycerine filled pressure gauge is required at the point of measurement.

The back entry connection is intended for panel, fascia, enclosure or equipment-front mounting, allowing the dial to remain visible while the pressure connection is made from behind. The glycerine filling helps damp pointer movement caused by vibration or pressure pulsation, supporting a steadier local indication in demanding service conditions.

This gauge is suited to engineers, OEMs and maintenance teams specifying a direct-reading pressure instrument for routine monitoring, commissioning and equipment checks. The wetted material compatibility should be checked carefully, particularly where brass wetted parts are used. Final selection should consider the required pressure range, process medium, vibration level, operating temperature and installation layout.

Selection and Installation Considerations

Before ordering, compare the gauge configuration with the existing installation or project specification. Correct selection helps improve readability, service life and measurement confidence.

  • Use the 160mm dial where improved visibility is needed from a normal working distance.
  • Confirm the back entry connection suits the panel, fascia or equipment-front mounting arrangement.
  • Check media compatibility with the wetted parts and use the filled case where vibration damping is beneficial.
  • Select a pressure range that allows normal operating pressure to sit comfortably within the scale.

Applications

Pump and Compressor Skids

Rear connection and glycerine filling make this gauge practical for skid packages where vibration and panel visibility are key considerations.

Hydraulic Power Units

The 160mm dial gives maintenance teams clear pressure readings on compatible hydraulic systems and control panels.

Industrial Process Panels

Back entry mounting suits instrument panels where front-facing indication is needed without exposed side or bottom pipework.

Utilities and Plant Services

Brass wetted parts and a stainless steel case support pressure monitoring on compatible non-corrosive industrial service lines.

Features

Dial

The 160mm dial provides a large viewing area for clear pressure indication on plant, panels and skid-mounted equipment.

Configuration

The back entry connection is arranged for rear-mounted installation, helping keep pipework and instrument panels compact.

Construction

A 304 stainless steel case supports use in industrial environments, while brass wetted parts are intended for compatible media.

Accuracy

The gauge is specified with 1% accuracy, supporting applications where close pressure indication is required.
