Ashcroft 83250 Industrial Pressure Gauge 0-5000 Psi 2.5in

Product Description

The ASHCROFT 83250 is a liquid-filled industrial pressure gauge designed for demanding service environments where accurate, reliable pressure readings are required. It features a 2.5-inch analog dial with a 0 to 5000 psi range and delivers 1 percent of scale accuracy. The Bourdon tube is 316 stainless steel, and the case is 304/316 stainless steel, making this gauge suited for corrosive or high-cycle applications. The lens is polycarbonate. The liquid fill dampens needle vibration and helps protect internal components from pressure spikes. Licensed HVAC technicians, plumbers, pipefitters, and industrial service techs are the typical installers of this gauge.

The ASHCROFT 83250 is intended for industrial pressure monitoring on piping systems, hydraulic circuits, compressors, pumps, and fluid-handling equipment. The center back mount configuration with a 0.25-inch NPT male connection suits panel-mounted or pipe-tee installations where a direct back entry is required. The liquid-filled construction makes it a practical choice for high-vibration or pulsating-pressure service points found in both commercial mechanical systems and light industrial process lines.

Key Features

• 0 to 5000 psi pressure range with 1 percent of scale accuracy
• Liquid-filled case dampens vibration and protects the Bourdon tube from pressure spikes
• 316 stainless steel Bourdon tube for corrosion resistance in aggressive media
• 304/316 stainless steel case for durable, long-service construction
• Polycarbonate lens for impact resistance and clear dial visibility
• Center back mount with 0.25-inch NPT connection for panel or pipe-tee installations
• Meets CRN, IP54, IP65/NEMA 4, PED, and RoHS standards

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style or replacement industrial pressure gauge for piping, hydraulic, and fluid-handling systems requiring a 0.25-inch NPT center back mount connection and a 0 to 5000 psi range.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber, pipefitter, or qualified industrial mechanic in accordance with applicable codes, including ASME B31.1 or B31.3 where required. De-pressurize and isolate the system before removing or installing the gauge. Apply thread sealant to the NPT connection per the sealant manufacturer and applicable code requirements. Do not exceed the rated maximum pressure of 5000 psi, and do not use the gauge on media incompatible with stainless steel wetted parts.
