Pressure gauge minimizes vibration without liquid fill

Damped movement of the Series 765 pressure gauge minimizes vibration without liquid filling.
Damped movement of the Series 765 pressure gauge minimizes vibration without liquid filling. The gauge uses a damping-compound-filled cap installed on the pointer shaft inside the gauge, eliminating pointer movement caused by vibration. It offers dual scale range (psi/kPa) with ±0.5% full-scale accuracy. The devices are housed in a phenolic safety case with a solid front with a blow-out back. Chemical compatibility is insured with the 316L stainless-steel socket and Bourdon tube. The gauges measure vacuum to 20,000 psi; with standard bottom ¼- or ½-in. male NPT connections; and in 125% FS < 1,500 psi, 115% FS for 2,000 to 5,000 psi; and 110 FS > 10,000 psi.Dwyer Instruments Inc., (800) 872-9141, www.dwyer-inst.com
