Overview
Materials and Construction:
Housing: Typically made from 304 or 316 stainless steel for excellent corrosion resistance.
Bourdon Tube: Usually constructed from stainless steel or another corrosion-resistant alloy, essential for accurate pressure measurement.
Connection: Stainless steel connections (e.g., NPT, BSP) ensure secure and leak-proof installation.
Types of Pressure Gauges:
Bourdon Tube Gauges: Most common, using a coiled tube that straightens under pressure.
Diaphragm Gauges: Use a diaphragm that flexes under pressure, suitable for lower pressure ranges.
Capsule Gauges: Ideal for measuring very low pressures, using a pair of diaphragms.
