160mm Bottom Entry Glycerine Filled Pressure Gauge


160mm Bottom Entry Glycerine Filled Pressure Gauge

The 160mm Bottom 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 bottom entry connection suits upright installation on pipework, manifolds, gauge valves and equipment ports, with the dial presented towards the operator for local reading. 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 bottom entry connection suits the pipework, manifold or equipment port orientation.
  • 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 Discharge Pressure Monitoring

Glycerine filling helps steady the pointer on pump discharge lines where pulsation or mechanical vibration can affect readability.

Hydraulic Power Unit Panels

Bottom entry mounting suits vertical gauge positions on hydraulic power packs and service panels using media compatible with brass wetted parts.

Compressed Air Plant

The 160mm dial aids routine pressure checks on compressors, receivers and distribution pipework where operators need clear local indication.

OEM Skids and Packaged Equipment

A stainless steel case makes the gauge a practical fit for industrial assemblies exposed to demanding workshop or plant environments.

Features

Dial

The 160mm dial provides a large viewing area for clear local pressure indication on plant, skids and pipework where readings may be taken at a distance.

Configuration

Bottom entry configuration supports direct vertical mounting into compatible process connections, test points or gauge valves.

Construction

A 304 stainless steel case gives robust external protection, while brass wetted parts are intended for use with compatible pressure media. Media suitability should be checked against the process conditions.

Accuracy

The stated 1% accuracy supports precise pressure indication where close reading of process pressure is required. Confirm the accuracy requirement against the application specification.
