Ametek 132534 Process Pressure Gauge 0-1500 Psi 6 in

Product Description

The AMETEK 132534 is an analog process pressure gauge designed for industrial and commercial fluid system monitoring. Built around a 6-inch dial face, it reads pressure from 0 to 1500 psi with an accuracy of 0.5% of scale, making it suitable for applications where precise pressure readings matter. The thermoplastic case houses stainless steel wetted parts, providing corrosion resistance on the fluid-contact surfaces. Connection is made through a 1/2-inch NPT lower-mount fitting. Licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, and industrial maintenance professionals install this gauge in process piping, hydraulic lines, and mechanical systems requiring continuous pressure indication.

The AMETEK 132534 fits lower-mount installations where the process connection enters from the bottom of the gauge. The 6-inch dial provides clear readability at a distance, which suits panel-mounted or wall-mounted piping configurations in both residential mechanical rooms and commercial or light industrial process environments. The NPT thread type is standard across North American plumbing and process piping systems. This gauge is dry (non-liquid-filled), which makes it appropriate for stable pressure environments without excessive vibration or pulsation.

Key Features

• 0 to 1500 psi pressure range with analog dial display
• 0.5% of scale accuracy for reliable process monitoring
• 6-inch dial diameter for high visibility in field installations
• Stainless steel wetted parts for corrosion resistance on fluid-contact surfaces
• Thermoplastic case construction, black finish
• 1/2-inch NPT lower-mount connection, standard North American thread
• Dry gauge — no liquid fill, suitable for stable pressure service

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-install process gauge for 1/2-inch NPT lower-mount gauge ports in industrial, commercial, and mechanical system piping applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed plumber or qualified mechanical technician. Depressurize and isolate the system completely before removing an existing gauge or making a new connection. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the NPT threads per standard practice — do not overtighten, as thermoplastic-case gauges can be damaged by excessive torque. Verify the system's maximum operating pressure does not exceed the gauge's 1500 psi rating before placing the system back in service.
