Overview
The Sani-Flow 3S-EB-1-1/2SMS-GF-BT-SS is a premium sanitary pressure gauge engineered for hygienic process monitoring in food, beverage, biotechnology, and pharmaceutical industries. With a 0-160 PSI measurement range, this bottom-mount gauge delivers accurate readings in demanding sanitary applications where product integrity and regulatory compliance are critical. The gauge combines robust stainless steel construction with glycerin-filled damping to ensure stable, repeatable measurements across varying process conditions.
Key Features
- 1-1/2″ tri-clamp (TC) bottom-mount connection for direct integration into sanitary process lines
- Glycerin-filled case provides shock absorption and measurement stability
- Fully stainless steel construction (case, diaphragm, and internals) for corrosion resistance in wet environments
- 3.5″ dial face for clear, easy-to-read pressure indication
- 0-160 PSI measurement range with 1% accuracy
- Recessed diaphragm design minimizes product holdup and simplifies CIP (Clean-In-Place) procedures
