Value Collection 111CB15160 Pressure Gauge 160 Psi

Product Description

The Value Collection 111CB15160 is a 1.5-inch dial analog pressure gauge designed for monitoring system pressure in plumbing, HVAC, and light industrial applications. It reads from 0 to 160 psi and connects via a 1/8-inch NPT center back mount fitting. The case is molded from ABS plastic and all wetted parts are brass, including a bronze Bourdon tube. Accuracy is rated at plus or minus 3-2-3 percent of scale across the full range. The dry, non-liquid-filled design keeps the unit compact and lightweight at 0.1 pounds, making it practical for tight installation spaces where a bulky gauge is not workable.

This gauge is suited for residential and light commercial use where a small, readable dial is needed on water lines, compressed air systems, or low-pressure HVAC circuits. The 1/8-inch NPT back mount connection is one of the most common thread sizes in plumbing and pneumatic hardware, making this gauge compatible with a wide range of standard tee fittings, manifolds, and gauge ports without adapters. Licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, and pipefitters are the primary installers for this type of gauge.

Key Features

• 0 to 160 psi pressure range suitable for water and air systems
• 1.5-inch analog dial with black case for clear visual readout
• 1/8-inch NPT center back mount for straightforward inline installation
• Brass wetted parts and bronze Bourdon tube resist corrosion from water and mild chemicals
• ABS case construction keeps weight low at 0.1 pounds
• Plus or minus 3-2-3 percent of scale accuracy across the full range

Compatibility

Designed as a standard replacement or new-installation gauge for any system with a 1/8-inch NPT gauge port rated up to 160 psi, including water supply lines, compressed air circuits, and low-pressure plumbing manifolds.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed plumber or HVAC technician. Shut off and depressurize the system completely before removing an existing gauge or threading this unit into the port. Apply thread sealant tape or pipe dope to the NPT threads before installation and hand-tighten followed by a controlled wrench turn to avoid cracking the ABS case. Do not exceed the 160 psi rated maximum pressure.
