It features a 3.5-inch dial face calibrated from 30 inches of mercury (Hg) to 0, with a stated accuracy of 1 percent of full scale. The stainless steel case provides corrosion resistance in wet or chemically active environments. Liquid-filled construction dampens pointer vibration and protects the internal bourdon tube movement from pulsation and shock, extending service life in demanding applications. Connection is via a 0.25-inch NPT lower-mount fitting, allowing direct in-line or panel installation. Licensed HVAC technicians, plumbers, and mechanical contractors are the primary installers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis gauge is suited for vacuum service applications including refrigerant evacuation monitoring, vacuum pump performance verification, and low-pressure gas or fluid system diagnostics. The lower-mount NPT connection supports vertical or upright installations where the process connection enters from the bottom of the gauge. The analog dial provides at-a-glance readings without power requirements, making it practical for field service work, mechanical rooms, and permanent panel installations in both residential and light commercial systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3.5-inch analog dial for clear readings at typical service distances\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eVacuum range: 30 Hg to 0, suitable for refrigeration evacuation and vacuum service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1 percent of full-scale accuracy for reliable diagnostic readings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLiquid-filled movement dampens vibration and protects internal components from pulsation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStainless steel case resists corrosion in wet and chemically active environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.25-inch NPT lower-mount connection for direct in-line or panel installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or service gauge for vacuum and low-pressure monitoring applications using standard 0.25-inch NPT lower-mount fittings in HVAC, plumbing, refrigeration, and mechanical piping systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed HVAC technician, plumber, or qualified mechanical contractor. Isolate and depressurize the system completely before removing an existing gauge or making new connections. Apply thread sealant tape to NPT threads per standard practice, and do not overtighten the fitting, as stainless steel fittings can gall. Verify that the gauge range is appropriate for the system before returning the system to service.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePressure Range\u003c\/strong\u003e: 30 Hg to 0\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAccuracy\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 percent of full scale\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDial Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Analog\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDial Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMount Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Lower\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCase Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLiquid Filled\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: ASHCROFT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 83225\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ASHCROFT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51544499224882,"sku":"83225","price":224.64,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/354cb3162489ff68ea41d248e4d39263_0cab84ac-d93c-4187-9acc-254f0cee030a.jpg?v=1785928218","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/ashcroft-83225-pressure-gauge-3-5-in-dial-30-hg-npt-lower","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
