Value Collection 729275 Pressure Gauge 2 in 0-200 Psi Npt

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 729275 is a 2-inch dial analog pressure gauge designed for monitoring system pressure in a wide range of plumbing, HVAC, and industrial service applications. It features a lower-mount 1/4-inch NPT connection and reads from 0 to 200 PSI on a single-scale analog display. The steel case provides durable protection in typical trade environments. The bronze Bourdon tube is the sensing element that deflects under pressure to drive the pointer across the dial. This gauge is not liquid-filled, making it straightforward to install and suitable for general-purpose pressure monitoring where vibration dampening is not required.

This gauge is suited for residential and light commercial applications where a compact, no-frills pressure indicator is needed. Typical install scenarios include water supply lines, compressed air systems, hydronic heating loops, and pump discharge monitoring. The lower-mount configuration positions the port at the 6 o'clock location on the gauge body, allowing direct inline or tee installation. The 2-inch dial size is readable at close range and fits standard gauge ports without adapters when the system uses 1/4-inch NPT fittings.

Key Features

• 0 to 200 PSI single-scale analog readout on a 2-inch dial
• 1/4-inch NPT lower-mount connection for inline or tee installation
• Bronze Bourdon tube sensing element for reliable pressure response
• Steel case construction for durability in trade environments
• No-fill design — no liquid fill to manage or contain
• Black dial face for clear contrast and readability

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose replacement or service gauge for systems with 1/4-inch NPT lower-mount gauge ports operating within a 0 to 200 PSI range.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed plumber, HVAC technician, or qualified service professional. Shut off system pressure and relieve residual pressure before removing or installing any gauge. Apply thread sealant tape to the NPT threads and hand-tighten before using a wrench — avoid overtightening, which can crack the gauge body or distort threads. Gauge installations on potable water systems may be subject to local plumbing code requirements under the IPC.
