Norgren 18-015-887 Gauge - 0-1 bar Range
Part Number: 18-015-887
Quick Summary
Norgren 18-015-887 gauge monitors pressure in compressed air systems, delivering precise readings for automated manufacturing lines. Low, fluctuating pressure creates cycle delays, tool wear, and unplanned downtime; this gauge helps operators quickly spot irregularities before they disrupt production. Industry-standard certifications such as CE marking and basic IP protection are common in pneumatic component families; SIL-rated performance is generally addressed by the surrounding control system, not the gauge alone. By offering a compact, easy-to-install solution in a 0-1 bar range, this gauge supports efficient maintenance practices and predictable energy use in your line, complementing other Norgren components.

FAQs
Install the gauge by threading it into the R1/8 port on your pneumatic line, ensuring clean, dry air and a secure seal with appropriate thread tape or thread sealant. Verify that the inlet pressure does not exceed 1 bar and that the gauge reading is visible within the control panel or enclosure. Use standard fittings to maintain leak-free connections and avoid over-tightening, which can damage the thread. Finally, test the system under operating conditions to confirm accurate readings.
The gauge covers 0 to 1 bar (0 to 14 psi) with a 0 to 1 bar scale, suitable for low-pressure pneumatic circuits. When designing the system, ensure upstream regulation produces stable pressures within this range to maintain readable, accurate measurements. In addition, account for potential pressure drops across fittings and connectors so the gauge reflects true system pressure at the measurement point.
Yes. The Norgren 18-015-887 is a compact 40x40x45 mm gauge with a 0-1 bar range and an R1/8 port, making it ideal for tight panels and localized monitoring. Its lightweight design (0.05 kg) simplifies mounting, reduces panel load, and supports dense layouts in control cabinets. The unit’s small footprint helps integrate multiple gauges in confined spaces while maintaining legible readouts.
Industry-standard considerations for pneumatic gauges include CE marking for EU compliance and basic IP protection in harsh environments, though exact certifications depend on the full assembly. For safety-critical applications, verify that SIL-rated components are addressed by the overall control system. Always consult the datasheet and your procurement spec to confirm applicable standards and consortium certifications for your installation.
The gauge supports early fault detection and stable pressure monitoring, reducing energy waste and unplanned downtime in pneumatic lines. Its compact design and simple installation lower installation costs and maintenance time. Over the maintenance cycle, staying aligned with the gauge’s 0-1 bar range can lead to extended equipment life, fewer leaks, and improved process reliability in automation environments.
