Measure small pressure changes in ventilation systems, hydraulic applications, and other critical processes with these high-accuracy gauges. Mount them with the dial face upright.

Gauges with 304 stainless steel case or polyester plastic case have better corrosion resistance than gauges with steel case.

Gauges with safety case blow out in the back under excess pressure, protecting the operator in front.

High-Accuracy Digital Test Gauges for Pressure

Battery Powered

AC/DC and DC Powered

Bottom Connection

Not only do these gauges have an accuracy of ±0.25%, they also have a four-digit LCD display that allows for easy reading of measurements. Use them for testing, calibrating, laboratory applications, and other critical applications that require precision.

Gauges with 4-20mA current output convert pressure to an electrical signal for remote monitoring.
