Value Collection 729271 Pressure Gauge 2 in Npt 0-30 Psi

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 729271 is a 2-inch dial analog pressure gauge designed for monitoring system pressure in plumbing, HVAC, and general industrial applications. It features a steel case, a bronze Bourdon tube sensing element, and a 1/4-inch NPT lower-mount connection. The gauge reads a single scale from 0 to 30 PSI and is dry (no liquid fill), making it suitable for standard low-pressure monitoring where vibration dampening is not required. Licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, and mechanical contractors install this type of gauge as part of system commissioning, diagnostic work, or permanent pressure indication setups.

This gauge is appropriate for residential and light commercial applications where a compact, lower-mount pressure gauge is needed. Typical installations include water supply lines, air compressor outlet ports, boiler systems, and compressed air distribution panels. The 1/4-inch NPT lower-mount configuration fits a wide range of standard pipe tees, manifolds, and gauge ports without adapters in most common system configurations.

Key Features

• 2-inch dial diameter for clear pressure readings in tight spaces
• 0 to 30 PSI single-scale analog readout
• 1/4-inch NPT lower-mount connection for direct pipe installation
• Bronze Bourdon tube for reliable pressure sensing
• Steel case construction for durability in trade environments
• Dry gauge design — no liquid fill required for standard installations

Compatibility

Designed as a standard-duty replacement or addition for low-pressure monitoring points accepting a 1/4-inch NPT lower-mount analog pressure gauge in residential and light commercial plumbing, HVAC, and compressed air systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed plumber or HVAC technician. Before installing or removing the gauge, depressurize and isolate the system at the nearest shutoff valve. Apply thread sealant tape or compound to the NPT threads before hand-tightening, then snug with a wrench — avoid over-torquing the steel case. Verify the system operating pressure falls within the 0 to 30 PSI range before placing the gauge in service.
