Ashcroft 601379A4LXLL160 Pressure Gauge 6 in 160 Psi

Product Description

The ASHCROFT 601379A4LXLL160 is an analog pressure gauge designed for industrial and mechanical system monitoring applications. It features a 6-inch dial for easy at-a-distance readability and a lower-mount 1/2-inch connection for direct inline or panel installation. The gauge reads from 0 to 160 psi with an accuracy of 0.5 percent of scale, making it suitable for applications where reliable pressure indication is required. The aluminum case keeps overall weight low at 3.13 pounds while providing solid protection for the internal mechanism. Bronze wetted parts offer corrosion resistance in systems carrying water, steam, air, or compatible process fluids. This gauge is installed by licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors.

This pressure gauge is well suited for use in commercial and industrial plumbing systems, HVAC hydronic loops, compressed air distribution, and general process piping where a large-dial analog readout is preferred. The lower-mount configuration positions the connection port at the bottom of the gauge body, allowing direct stem-mounted installation onto pipes, manifolds, or pressure taps without additional adapters in most configurations. It is not liquid filled, which simplifies maintenance and reduces weight in non-vibration-intensive environments.

Key Features

• 6-inch analog dial provides clear readability from a distance
• 0 to 160 psi pressure range covers a wide variety of commercial and industrial service pressures
• 0.5 percent of scale accuracy for reliable pressure indication
• Aluminum case construction reduces overall weight
• Bronze wetted parts resist corrosion in water, air, and compatible fluid systems
• Lower-mount 1/2-inch connection suits direct pipe or manifold installation
• Non-liquid-filled design simplifies service in low-vibration environments

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style or replacement analog pressure gauge for commercial and industrial plumbing, HVAC hydronic, and process piping systems requiring a 6-inch lower-mount gauge with a 1/2-inch connection and a 0 to 160 psi range.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber, pipefitter, or qualified HVAC technician in accordance with applicable local codes and the system manufacturer's guidelines. Depressurize and isolate the system completely before removing an existing gauge or installing this unit. Use an appropriate thread sealant on the 1/2-inch connection threads and avoid over-tightening, which can damage the gauge socket. Do not install in systems with fluid compatibility, pressure, or temperature conditions outside the rated specifications.
