Ashcroft® Industrial Gauges

     Ashcroft® industrial pressure gauges have earned a reputation for dependability as a mainstay in the marketplace for over 150 years. Meeting the requirements of ASME B40.1-1991, Ashcroft
industrial pressure gauges are offered in a wide assortment of dial sizes, case styles and wetted parts materials.
     Applications These gauges have been engineered for general service applications such as
low-pressure applications from 10 inches of water, and hydraulic and refrigeration
service. Other industrial pressure gauges measure differential pressure,
while Ashcroft duplex pressure gauges meet requirements for indication of two
related pressures with a single gauge. The Ashcroft industrial gauge family
also includes the Reid vapor test gauge specifically designed for testing volatile
petroleum liquids using the vapor test procedure prescribed by ASTM D-323.
Ashcroft Christmas tree gauges are designed specifically for use in the oil fields.
 
 
 
Pressure Gauge Selection

Ashcroft industrial pressure gauges are available in a variety of sizes and materials to meet the demands of the industrial marketplace. When selecting an Ashcroft industrial pressure gauge,
consider these seven steps:

Process Media
— Ashcroft industrial pressure gauges are available in a
wide selection of Bourdon tube and socket materials to fit your application.

Pressure Gauge Range — available with ranges as low as 10 inches of water
through 20,000 psi, Ashcroft industrial pressure gauges have been designed
to meet your application needs.

Operating Environment — available in case materials of stainless steel,
black epoxy-coated aluminum and phenolic, these gauges have been
designed to withstand the most demanding environments. Most are
available with an optional built-in throttle plug to help protect against
pressure surges or spikes.

Accuracy Requirements — all general service type industrial gauges are
offered with a 1% ASME Grade 1A accuracy. Ashcroft Types 5503 and
5509 gauges have standard accuracies of 1.6% and 2.5% respectively.
Low-pressure bellows gauges and all other industrial gauges are offered with
a 2/1/2% ASME Grade A accuracy.

Dial Size — available with dial sizes from 21/2 through 81/2 inches, Ashcroft
industrial gauges come in sizes to meet your space requirements with
optimum gauge readability.

Connections — availability includes, but is not limited to 1/4 NPT, 1/2 NPT,
BSP, JIS and SAE connections.

Mounting Requirements — depending on the type, Ashcroft gauges are
available for stem, surface or flush mounting.
