Precision Test Gauges

RELIABLE ACCURACY ON CRITICAL APPLICATIONS

Advantages

ONE MOVING PART

Unmatched vibration, pulsation and shock performance.

Helical Bourdon Tube = Gearless, Direct Drive = DURABILITY

No linkages, springs, gears, or liquid fill to wear, break or leak. Unique, internal pointer dampening reduces pointer flutter without the negative consequences of liquid fill.

TRAVEL READY

Survives the day to day beatings of an industrial environment or a bumpy ride in the back of a pickup.

Don’t sweat the accidental drop or the surprise pothole. Direct Drive Design is inherently more durable in the areas of shock and vibration.

LIFETIME LIMITED WARRANTY

Lifetime warranty that the Bourdon tube will not malfunction due to wear.

1 year from delivery or 18 months from date of manufacture against defects in materials and workmanship.

TRUSTED ACCURACY

Accuracy is 25% less affected by temperature fluctuations. Trusted in extremes from -65° F up to 600° F media.

Inconel Elastic Element = Low Coefficient of Thermal Expansion

Inconel in combination with a low internal volume means that the impact of temperature on accuracy is significantly less than competitors using a Stainless Steel Bourdon Tube.

AEROSPACE QUALITY | MILITARY TRUSTED

Direct Drive is demanded on critical applications.

The same military grade Direct Drive technology used in our Aeropsace and Military designs, is used in our industrial gauges for commercial applications. Ideal for land, air, sea, and space.

The U.S. Military recognizes the durability advantages Direct Drive provides and requires it on their most demanding applications.

USA PARTS, USA MADE, USA OWNED

Manufactured in Minden, NV using only American made parts. Manufacturing processes not completed in house are outsourced to support local small businesses.
