PT40-500psig-1-5-2-8-ST8

Pressure Sensors Transducers Overview

The NOSHOK PT40-500psig-1-5-2-8-ST8 is a bourdon tube pressure gauge designed for industrial process monitoring. It features a 4-inch dial diameter and a 500 psig measurement range with an equivalent KPA scale. The unit utilizes a 1/2 inch NPT rear connection and includes a stainless steel wetted material configuration to ensure compatibility with various media. This model incorporates a solid front case design, providing enhanced durability against vibration and shock in demanding operational environments.

Pressure Sensors Transducers Feature Summary

• Solid front case construction provides robust protection against mechanical shock and vibration
• Stainless steel wetted materials ensure reliable performance across diverse fluid applications
• Dual-scale dial displays readings in both PSIG and KPA units for versatile monitoring

Pressure Sensors Transducers Applications

• Industrial process control systems requiring high reliability
• Hydraulic and pneumatic equipment monitoring
• Compressor and pump discharge line verification

Pressure Sensors Transducers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific process media compatibility against the stainless steel wetted material specifications before installation. Confirm that the required 1/2 inch NPT rear connection aligns with existing panel cutouts and piping infrastructure. Ensure the ambient operating temperature falls within the standard gauge limits to maintain accuracy and prevent seal degradation during continuous service cycles.

Pressure Sensors Transducers Selection Notes

Select this model when a larger 4-inch dial face is necessary for improved readability from a distance. The combination of a 500 psig range and dual-unit scaling makes it suitable for general-purpose industrial applications where both imperial and metric references are utilized. The solid front design is preferred over vented cases in environments subject to significant mechanical stress or potential impact.

Pressure Sensors Transducers Part Context

This instrument belongs to the NOSHOK 400 series of bourdon tube pressure gauges. These instruments are engineered for general industrial use, offering a balance of precision and ruggedness. The series is characterized by its ability to withstand harsh conditions while maintaining consistent accuracy, making it a standard choice for factory automation and heavy machinery monitoring tasks.

Pressure Sensors Transducers Replacement Considerations

Direct substitution requires matching the 4-inch dial size, 500 psig range, and 1/2 inch NPT rear connection. Verify that the replacement unit also features a solid front case and stainless steel wetted components to maintain environmental resistance and media compatibility standards.
