FAQs
The 18-015-844 uses a standard 1/8 inch PTF thread. To install, ensure the mating fitting matches the PTF thread type, apply a suitable thread sealant or PTFE tape if required, and tighten to manufacturer's recommended torque to avoid leaks. Verify the gauge orientation and clearance for panel mounting, and test for leaks after installation to ensure reliable performance in pneumatic lines.
The gauge is rated for a 0-10 bar pressure range, making it suitable for common pneumatic circuits, test rigs, and line monitoring in factory automation. Exact accuracy and response characteristics are not specified here; consult the official datasheet or Norgren support for tolerance values and calibration intervals relevant to your application and operating conditions.
Yes. The 1/8" PTF thread and compact form factor support retrofit or upgrade scenarios in existing pneumatic networks. Its 0-10 bar range covers many standard lines, enabling quick replacement without extensive plumbing changes. For best results, map the gauge location to critical pressure points and ensure compatible fittings are available to minimize installation downtime.
Certification details such as CE conformity, IP ratings, or SIL suitability depend on the specific variant and installation. Always verify the datasheet or contact the supplier to confirm applicable certifications for your region and application, especially for safety-critical or enclosed environments where regulatory compliance is essential.
By delivering stable, repeatable pressure readings with a straightforward installation, the gauge reduces commissioning time and minimizes diagnostic guesswork. This translates to lower downtime during setup and maintenance, fewer misreads driving cycle errors, and a more predictable maintenance budget in high-throughput automation environments.
