PT40-200psig-2-2-8-16-ST8

Pressure Sensors Transducers Overview

The NOSHOK PT40-200psig-2-2-8-16-ST8 is a bourdon tube pressure gauge designed for industrial process monitoring. It features a 200 psig measurement range with a 2-1/2 inch dial size and a 1/4 inch NPT lower connection. The instrument utilizes a stainless steel wetted materials construction to ensure durability against corrosive media. It includes a liquid-filled case, typically glycerin, to dampen mechanical vibration and pulsation, providing stable readings in dynamic environments.

Pressure Sensors Transducers Feature Summary

• Liquid-filled case design effectively dampens vibration and pulsation for accurate readings
• Stainless steel wetted components provide corrosion resistance and structural integrity
• Bourdon tube sensing element ensures reliable pressure measurement performance

Pressure Sensors Transducers Applications

• Industrial process control systems requiring vibration isolation
• Hydraulic and pneumatic machinery monitoring
• Compressor and pump discharge line instrumentation

Pressure Sensors Transducers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific fluid compatibility of the wetted parts against the process medium to prevent corrosion failure. Confirm that the required accuracy class meets the application's tolerance levels. Ensure the physical dimensions of the 2-1/2 inch dial fit the designated panel or pipe mount location. Check that the 1/4 inch NPT thread matches the existing system connections.

Pressure Sensors Transducers Selection Notes

Select this model when vibration damping is critical for gauge longevity and readability. The stainless steel construction is suitable for general industrial fluids but requires verification for highly aggressive chemicals. Consider the liquid fill type if operating in extreme temperature ranges outside standard glycerin specifications. Evaluate the need for additional safety features like blowout backs if overpressure risks exist.

Pressure Sensors Transducers Part Context

This component belongs to the NOSHOK PT40 series of bourdon tube pressure gauges. The series is characterized by its robust metal cases and versatile connection options. The PT40 line is engineered for harsh industrial environments where standard gauges might fail due to shock or vibration. It represents a standard solution for general-purpose pressure indication in manufacturing and processing plants.

Pressure Sensors Transducers Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements must match the 200 psig range, 1/4 inch NPT lower connection, and 2-1/2 inch dial size. Verify that substitute models offer equivalent vibration damping through liquid filling. Ensure the replacement maintains the same wetted material composition to preserve chemical compatibility.
