Test Pressure Gauge

3D Test Pressure Gauge series gives you a choice of two different degrees of accuracy to match your application. All 3D Test Pressure Gauge accuracy figures are real: they include all friction, error, hysteresis, and linearity variations. And 3D Test Pressure Gauge maintain their rated accuracy over the entire life of the gauge. With no gears or wear poinnts there is no need for recalibration.

Every dial is clearly marked for fast, accurate reading with calibrations covering a 270° arc. Parallax is corrected on the Test Pressure Gauge by a neutral glare-free face and a corrosion resistant stainless steel dial, incorporating a polished mirror band.

Our Test Pressure Gauges are easy to zero with a front mounted zero adjust screw, virtually the only adjustment necessary over the life of the gauge.

3D Test Pressure Gauge is ideal for field calibrations where rough servcie conditions cause the need for frequent recalibrations in lesser gauge technologies. 3D Test Pressure Gauge is available in; 2-1/2", 4-1/2", 6", 8-1/2", and 12" diameters. Accuracies available are 0.5% and 0.25% of span.

A variety of case configurations and colors is provided so that you can match the exact pressure calibration instrument required for your service.

Test Pressure Gauge Order Information

To obtain your part number for the type of gauge you need, select one variation under each column heading. Place a check mark immediately below the part number for each variation. When complete, write the part numbers above each check. The resulting number is your part number. (Note: The first two numbers are always 25 as indicated.) Example: 25544-31B13.

RS380-1 Filter. The RS380-1 Filter is standard equipment on all 3D gauges to prevent particles from entering the bourdon coil. Made of 300 series stainless steel for corrosion resistance. RS380-1 is easily removed for cleaning. Filters are available separately.

Custom dial faces. 3D's design and engineering department can provide special dials to customers' specifications upon request. Customized faces may show force or weight, extended ranges, special colors, corporate logo-types, or legends.

Max Pressure Pointer. A "Dead Hand" pointer is moved by the gauge indicating pointer on increasing pressure. and the "Dead Hand" pointer remains at maximum pressure when the gauge pressure returns to normal or zero. The assembly is mounted on the gauge crystal and has an external reset knob to reposition the pointer. This pointer is available on the 4 1/2, 6, 8-1/2 and 12 inch gauges.

Internal Isolator. The 3D Internal Isolator GP400 prevents the passage of any contaminating product into the bourdon coil system, eliminating plugging. The unit is a sleeve-type elastomer which is threaded into the fitting of 3D gauges after liquid filling of the coil. The GP400 can be operated to full gauge pressure from - 40 degrees to -250 degrees F (-40 degrees C to -120 degrees C) without deterioration of gauge accuracy, except on pressure ranges of 100 psi and under. The GP400 is not suitable for gas service.
