New Product Introduction: T6500 Pressure Gauge with Overpressure Option

March 28, 2019

For Immediate Release:

 

Gauge Withstands High Overpressure

The Ashcroft® T6500 stainless steel, solid front pressure gauge is now available with the XRA overpressure option. This feature adds an overpressure mechanism that restricts the motion of the Bourdon tube after the specified full scale value is reached. As a result, the gauge can withstand up to 400% overpressure without damage, often eliminating the need for an external pressure limiting valve. It is especially useful in applications where pressure spikes and water hammer are a threat.
