Value Collection 116AL25160D Pressure Gauge 160 Psi

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 116AL25160D is an analog pressure gauge designed for industrial and mechanical system monitoring. The gauge features a 2.5-inch dial with a measurement range of 0 to 160 psi, a lower-mount 1/4-inch NPT connection, and an accuracy rating of plus or minus 3-2-3 percent of scale. The stainless steel case and stainless steel wetted parts make it suitable for applications involving water, air, oil, and compatible process media. This is a dry-filled gauge, meaning no liquid dampening is present. It is installed by plumbers, HVAC technicians, and mechanical contractors requiring reliable pressure indication in tight spaces.

This gauge is suited for use in residential and light commercial plumbing systems, HVAC equipment, compressed air lines, hydraulic test benches, and general fluid power circuits. The lower-mount configuration allows direct pipe connection from below the gauge body, which is common in panel-mount and manifold installations. It is appropriate where a compact, corrosion-resistant instrument is needed for continuous pressure monitoring without the complexity of a liquid-filled housing.

Key Features

• 0 to 160 psi pressure range with analog dial readout
• 2.5-inch dial diameter for clear, at-a-glance readings
• Stainless steel case and stainless steel wetted parts for corrosion resistance
• Lower-mount 1/4-inch NPT connection for direct pipe or manifold installation
• 3-2-3 percent of scale accuracy across the full dial range
• Dry-filled construction with no internal liquid

Compatibility

Designed as a standard-fitment analog pressure gauge for plumbing, HVAC, and fluid power systems that use 1/4-inch NPT lower-mount connections and require a maximum operating pressure at or below 160 psi.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber, HVAC technician, or pipefitter. Depressurize and isolate the system completely before removing or installing any pressure gauge. Apply thread sealant or PTFE tape to the NPT threads and tighten to hand-snug plus a wrench turn, taking care not to overtighten the stainless steel fittings. Verify the system operating pressure does not exceed the 160 psi maximum range of the gauge before returning the system to service.
