Glycerine Filled Pressure Gauge

What is a Glycerine Filled Pressure Gauge?

Glycerine filled pressure gauges are robustly constructed which gives them a very unique design and more reliability because it gives an extra opportunity of life to dry gauges that are in severe conditions. The way it works can be a little confusing for beginners, but in simple terms, thanks to the glycerine immersive movements, the gauge will be constantly lubricated which will add thousands of cycles of life to the gauge, so it's perfect for those who are looking for a reliable and durable product.

It can avoid condensation and corrosion inside of the case, and also, the glycerine on the inside will minimize the pointer flutter that is commonly caused by vibrations and in terms of protection, the gauges that are filled with glycerine are one of the safest to use if it is not abused.

Features of glycerinie filled pressure gauge

• It comes with a display range of 1000 bar in full vacuum.
• The nominal size can be different depending on the manufacturer, but the common size is around 63 mm, 100 mm, and 150 mm.
• In terms of accuracy, it has a lecture of 1.6 %
• Silicon and other fillings are available for works that require higher or lower temperatures.
• The brass can be made either of bronze or 316 stainless steel.

Glycerine Filled Pressure Gauge Usage and Applications

The glycerine filled pressure gauges are commonly used to minimize the problems of vibrations and more importantly to give a constant lubrication to the gauge, however, those are only the main applications, there are some other secondary uses for these incredible gauges like the next ones:

• It has a minor application for gases and liquids that are not highly viscous, some other gauges can not perform task with these type of conditions.
• Measuring high dynamic vibrations is something easy for the glycerine.
• It can be used for hydraulics and compressors that require maintenance or some other works.
• Finally, the main reason of why this gauge it is commonly used is for the impact that the glycerine has in the life span, thanks to the constant lubrication it can give a lot of extra cycles, so, it is a great choice in terms of durability.
