The brass case and copper alloy wetted parts make it well suited for general industrial service, HVAC, and plumbing applications where vibration or pulsation could affect readability on a dry gauge. The glycerine fill dampens needle movement and protects internal components in demanding environments. Accuracy is 1.5% of scale, which meets the requirements for most commercial and industrial monitoring installations. The 1\/4-inch NPT back-mount connection allows direct installation into panel-mounted or piped configurations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis gauge is a standard choice for trade professionals installing or servicing hydronic heating systems, compressed air lines, water supply systems, and light industrial process piping. The back-mount NPT configuration suits panel installations and equipment where a flush or rear-ported connection is required. The acrylic lens provides clear dial visibility in field conditions. Licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, and pipefitters are the typical installers for this type of gauge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGlycerine-filled case reduces needle flutter caused by vibration or pressure pulsation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2.5-inch analog dial with single scale reading 0 to 160 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/4-inch NPT back-mount connection for panel or direct-pipe installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBrass case construction for corrosion resistance in typical service environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCopper alloy wetted parts compatible with water, air, and many common process fluids\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAcrylic lens for clear, durable dial visibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1.5% of scale accuracy meets standard industrial monitoring requirements\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an industrial-grade replacement or new-install pressure gauge for systems with a 1\/4-inch NPT back-mount port operating within the 0 to 160 psi range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is typically performed by a licensed plumber, HVAC technician, or pipefitter. Isolate and depressurize the system completely before removing an existing gauge or installing a new one. Apply thread sealant or PTFE tape to the NPT threads per local plumbing code requirements, and do not overtighten, as brass fittings can be damaged by excessive torque. Glycerine-filled gauges should be mounted in orientations that keep the fill fluid in contact with the sensing element — consult the manufacturer documentation for acceptable mounting angles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGauge Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Industrial Pressure Gauge\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePressure Range\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0 to 160 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDial Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDial Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Analog, Single Scale\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAccuracy\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.5% of scale\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size and Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inch NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMount Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Back Mount\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCase Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWetted Parts Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Copper Alloy\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLens Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Acrylic\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLiquid Filled\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes, Glycerine\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.66 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: WIKA\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9318186\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"WIKA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51706183385394,"sku":"9318186","price":183.94,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/cedd3fcc300f76317845fb03663a316c.jpg?v=1788433144","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/wika-9318186-pressure-gauge-0-160-psi-2-5-in-dial-npt-back","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
