Dwyer Instruments tl40-160-4l Pressure Gauge 160 Psi 4 in

Product Description

The DWYER INSTRUMENTS tl40-160-4l is a utility-grade water pressure gauge designed for general-purpose pressure monitoring in plumbing and mechanical systems. It features a 4-inch dial face with a 160 PSI range, giving technicians a clear, readable display across a wide range of operating pressures. The 1/4-inch male pipe thread (MPT) lower-mount connection allows for direct bottom-entry installation into a pipe or fitting. This gauge is a standard tool for plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors who need reliable pressure indication without electronic components.

This gauge is suited for residential and light commercial water systems where a direct-mount, analog pressure reading is required. Typical applications include domestic water supply lines, boiler feed lines, irrigation systems, and pump discharge monitoring. The lower-mount configuration is commonly used when the gauge mounts vertically on a tee, valve, or manifold, keeping the dial face forward-facing and easy to read during routine service inspections.

Key Features

• 160 PSI pressure range suitable for standard water distribution and mechanical system applications
• 4-inch dial face provides a large, easy-to-read display in the field
• 1/4-inch MPT lower-mount connection for direct bottom-entry pipe installation
• Utility-grade construction intended for general water service use
• Analog indication with no external power required

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit utility pressure gauge for residential and light commercial plumbing, boiler, and mechanical piping systems requiring a 1/4-inch MPT lower-mount connection.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter. Shut off and depressurize the system completely before removing an existing gauge or installing this unit. Apply thread sealant tape or pipe dope to the MPT threads per local plumbing code requirements before threading into the fitting. Do not over-tighten; use a wrench on the hex fitting body only and avoid applying torque directly to the gauge case.
