Overview
The Ashcroft 25-1009-AW-02L-160 is a Type 1009 Duralife stainless steel pressure gauge designed for precise pressure measurement in industrial environments. With a 0–160 PSI range and 2.5″ face diameter, this gauge combines exceptional build quality with shock-resistant features, making it ideal for applications requiring both accuracy and durability. The all-welded stainless steel construction meets ASME B40.100 standards for reliability and safety.
Key Features
- PowerFlexâ„¢ Movement: Superior resistance to shock, vibration, and pulsation extends product life and reduces maintenance downtime.
- True Zeroâ„¢ Technology: Uses a “zero box” design instead of conventional dial pins, eliminating reading errors and ensuring system safety and integrity.
- Stainless Steel Construction: All-welded design provides corrosion resistance for challenging process media and harsh environments.
- Removable Bayonet Ring: Allows easy access for minor gauge adjustments without removal from the system.
- ASME B40.100 Certified: Accuracy and performance certified to meet industrial measurement standards.
