The 63mm glycerine filled back and bottom pressure gauges from Shelley Automation offer several advantages for specific applications:Advantages: - Larger size: Compared to 50mm gauges, the 63mm size provides a larger and clearer dial, making readings easier to see, especially from a distance or in low-light conditions.
- Glycerine fill: This liquid fill offers several benefits:
- Vibration resistance: Glycerin dampens vibrations, which can be helpful in applications with machinery or equipment that vibrates.
- Reduced pointer oscillation: Glycerin helps smooth out pointer movement, making readings more stable and easier to interpret.
- Protection against condensation: Glycerin can help prevent condensation from forming on the internal components of the gauge, which can be important in humid environments.
- Back and bottom entry: Similar to the 50mm gauges, this configuration allows for flexibility in mounting.
- Durable construction: Typically made from stainless steel with a brass wetted section, ensuring they can withstand harsh environments.
- Accuracy: Typically have an accuracy of ±1.6% FSD, offering higher precision than most dry gauges.
- Variety of pressure ranges: Available in a wide range of pressure ranges to suit different needs.
Applications: These gauges are well-suited for applications requiring:
- Clear visibility of readings: Due to their larger size and smoother pointer movement.
- Vibration resistance: In environments with machinery or equipment that vibrates.
- Protection against condensation: In humid environments.
- Higher accuracy: For applications where precise pressure measurement is critical.
Here are some specific examples of applications where these gauges might be a good choice:
- Industrial machinery: Monitoring pressure in pumps, compressors, hydraulic systems, and other industrial equipment.
- Mobile equipment: Measuring pressure in engines, transmissions, and other components of vehicles and heavy machinery.
- Marine applications: Monitoring pressure in bilge pumps, engines, and other onboard systems.
- Power generation: Measuring pressure in boilers, turbines, and other power plant equipment.
Considerations: - Glycerine filled gauges are generally more expensive than dry gauges.
- The liquid fill can make them slightly slower to respond to pressure changes.
Overall, the 63mm glycerine filled back and bottom pressure gauges from Shelley Automation offer a combination of readability, vibration resistance, and accuracy, making them a good choice for demanding applications where these features are important. If you need help deciding between dry and glycerine-filled gauges, considering the specific demands of your application and the trade-offs between cost, performance, and readability will guide you towards the best choice.
