Ashcroft 83184 Pressure Gauge 0-15 Psi 2.5in Dial Npt

Product Description

The ASHCROFT 83184 is a liquid-filled industrial pressure gauge designed for accurate pressure monitoring in demanding system environments. It features a 2.5-inch analog dial with a 0 to 15 psi range and delivers 1 percent of full-scale accuracy. The Bourdon tube is constructed from 316 stainless steel, and the case is stainless steel (grades 304 and 316), making it well-suited for corrosive or wet service applications. The polycarbonate lens resists impact and chemical exposure. Liquid filling dampens pointer vibration and protects internal components from pulsating pressure conditions. Licensed HVAC technicians, plumbers, and pipefitters are the typical installers for this type of gauge.

The ASHCROFT 83184 is appropriate for residential and light commercial plumbing, HVAC, and process piping installations where low-range pressure monitoring is required. The center back mount configuration allows flush or panel-style mounting in tight service locations. The 1/4-inch NPT threaded connection fits standard pipe fittings common to water, air, and gas service lines. This gauge is a fit for instrumentation panels, mechanical rooms, and inline test points where a compact, durable pressure indicator is needed.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation gauge for industrial and commercial pressure monitoring systems requiring a 2.5-inch dial, center back NPT mount, and 0 to 15 psi range.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable IPC and local mechanical codes. Shut down and depressurize the system completely before removing any existing gauge or installing this unit. Use appropriate pipe thread sealant on the NPT threads and tighten to the fitting manufacturer's specification without over-torquing the gauge body. Do not use the gauge case or dial as leverage during installation.
