Ametek 165284 Pressure Gauge 0-100 Psi 2 in Lower Mount

Product Description

The AMETEK 165284 is an analog pressure gauge designed for monitoring system pressure in a wide range of plumbing, HVAC, and industrial service applications. It features a 2-inch dial with a 0 to 100 psi range and a lower-mount 1/4-inch threaded connection. Accuracy is rated at plus or minus 3-2-3 percent of scale, meaning 3 percent at the low and high ends of the range with 2 percent in the mid-range zone. At 0.25 pounds, it is a compact, lightweight instrument suited for panel mounting, system test points, or permanent installation on pressurized lines. Licensed tradespeople and experienced service technicians are the primary installers.

This gauge fits typical low-pressure monitoring points on water supply lines, hydronic heating systems, air compressor outlets, and general fluid or gas service lines where a 0 to 100 psi range is appropriate. The lower-mount configuration positions the process connection at the bottom of the gauge body, making it well suited for direct pipe or manifold mounting where the dial needs to face outward for easy reading. It is appropriate for both residential and light commercial service work.

Key Features

• 0 to 100 psi pressure range suitable for common plumbing and HVAC service points
• Plus or minus 3-2-3 percent of scale accuracy across the full dial range
• 2-inch analog dial for clear, at-a-glance pressure reading
• Lower-mount design with 1/4-inch threaded process connection
• Compact and lightweight at 0.25 pounds for easy installation in tight spaces

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation pressure gauge for residential and light commercial systems requiring a 2-inch lower-mount analog gauge with a 1/4-inch thread and a 0 to 100 psi range.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed plumber, HVAC technician, or qualified service professional. Always depressurize and isolate the system before removing or installing any pressure gauge. Apply appropriate thread sealant to the 1/4-inch male threads per the system fluid or gas type and follow applicable plumbing or mechanical codes. Do not overtighten the threaded connection, as this can crack the gauge body or damage the fitting.
