PT40-300psig-2-1-2-80-ST8-CC

Pressure Sensors Transducers Overview

The NOSHOK PT40-300psig-2-1-2-80-ST8-CC is a bourdon tube pressure gauge designed for industrial process monitoring. It features a 300 psig measurement range with a 2-1/2 inch dial face and a 1/4 inch NPT lower connection. The instrument utilizes a stainless steel wetted materials assembly to ensure compatibility with various media. It incorporates a liquid-filled case, typically glycerin, to dampen pointer vibration and protect internal components from mechanical shock and pulsation. The unit includes a standard clear acrylic window and a black dial with white markings for high visibility.

Pressure Sensors Transducers Feature Summary

• Liquid-filled case construction provides enhanced resistance to vibration and pulsation
• Stainless steel sensing element ensures durability in demanding environments
• Lower-mounted connection facilitates easy installation and piping alignment

Pressure Sensors Transducers Applications

• Industrial process control systems
• Hydraulic and pneumatic machinery monitoring
• Compressed air system verification

Pressure Sensors Transducers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific fluid fill type required for your operating temperature range, as standard glycerin may not suit extreme conditions. Confirm that the process connection thread matches your panel or pipe specifications exactly. Ensure the case material meets environmental protection standards for your installation site. Check if a blank dial or custom scale is needed for specific regulatory compliance. Always validate the wetted material compatibility against the target medium to prevent corrosion.

Pressure Sensors Transducers Selection Notes

Select this model when vibration damping is critical for accurate reading stability. Choose based on the required pressure range exceeding maximum operating pressure by a safe margin. Consider the case size relative to viewing distance requirements. Evaluate the connection location preference for space constraints. Assess the need for liquid fill versus dry case based on the intensity of mechanical stress in the application environment.

Pressure Sensors Transducers Part Context

This component belongs to the NOSHOK PT series of bourdon tube pressure gauges. The series is characterized by robust construction suitable for general industrial applications. The PT designation indicates a standard analog pressure measurement device. This specific configuration represents a common variant used in manufacturing and processing plants where reliable local indication is necessary.

Pressure Sensors Transducers Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the 300 psig range, 1/4 NPT lower connection, and 2-1/2 inch dial size. Verify that replacement units offer equivalent liquid fill characteristics for vibration damping. Ensure the wetted material composition remains compatible with the process media. Cross-reference mounting dimensions to guarantee physical fit within existing panels.
