Ashcroft 94329 Pressure Gauge 0-160 Psi 2.5 in Dial Npt

Product Description

The ASHCROFT 94329 is an analog industrial pressure gauge designed for accurate pressure monitoring across a wide range of trade and process applications. The gauge features a 2.5-inch dial with a 0 to 160 psi range and delivers 1 percent of scale accuracy. The case is constructed from 304 stainless steel, while the Bourdon tube is 316 stainless steel for enhanced corrosion resistance. Connection is via a 1/4-inch NPT lower-mount fitting. The polycarbonate lens protects the dial face. This gauge is not liquid-filled and is suitable for dry-service installations where vibration levels are moderate. Licensed trade professionals install this gauge in mechanical, HVAC, and plumbing systems.

The 94329 is used in residential and commercial applications where reliable pressure readings are required on water, air, gas, and compatible fluid systems. The lower-mount NPT connection allows direct panel or pipe installation in tight spaces. The stainless steel construction makes it suitable for mildly corrosive environments. This gauge is a common choice for boiler systems, compressed air lines, chilled water loops, and process piping where a compact, analog readout is preferred. Its compliance with IP54 and IP65/NEMA 4 ratings supports use in wet or wash-down service environments.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber, pipefitter, or HVAC technician in accordance with applicable local codes and system manufacturer requirements. Shut off and depressurize the system fully before removing or installing any pressure gauge. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the NPT fitting threads, taking care not to introduce sealant into the pressure port. Do not exceed the rated maximum pressure or use this gauge on systems with fluids incompatible with stainless steel or polycarbonate.
