Overview
The Dixon GL125 is a standard dry pressure gauge engineered for industrial and fluid transfer applications. This gauge features a 1/4″ National Pipe Taper (NPT) male threaded lower mount, a 2″ display face and an ABS (acrylonitrile butadiene styrene) case with a polycarbonate crystal, and measures pressure from 0 to 100 pounds per square inch (psi). The dry gauge displays 2 psi increments on a white dial face with a black aluminum pointer and has ASME B40.1, Grade B accuracy (plus or minus 3-2-3 percent of span).
Key Features
- Bronze bourdon tube pressure sensing with bronze safety movement and polyester segment to resist shock, vibration, and pulsation
- PowerFlexâ„¢ movement with polyester segment, designed to resist the effects of shock, vibration and pulsation
- Corrosion-resistant, ABS plastic case with polycarbonate window
- Lower mount connection design simplifies installation on pumps and system manifolds
- Clean white dial with 2 PSI graduation intervals for easy reading

Typical Applications
Typical applications include those on pumps, hydraulic and pneumatic systems, compressors, machine tools, and many other installations where it is necessary to have a gauge with a non-corrosive movement. The gauge is suitable for use in a variety of applications, such as measuring gas or liquid pressure in petrochemical and chemical manufacturing. Common uses include fluid distribution systems, equipment testing, and general-purpose pressure monitoring where durability under industrial conditions is required.
Compatibility & Replacements
Compatible With
- Standard 1/4″ NPT female ports on hydraulic manifolds
- Pneumatic system installations
- Pump discharge and system monitoring points
- Fluid power equipment and controls
- Industrial compressors and machine tools
Replaces / Drop-In Replacement For
The Dixon GL125 is a direct replacement for any existing 0-100 PSI dry gauge with 1/4″ NPT lower mount connection and 2″ dial. Other Dixon standard dry gauges in the GL series (GL100, GL150) are designed with the same mounting interface for system compatibility, though pressure ranges vary.
Works With
