Marine Shock-Proof Pressure Gauge | For High-Vibration Environments

A durable pressure gauge for shipboard systems. Its internal mechanism is protected by a liquid-filled casing to resist heavy vibration from engines and pumps. You get a stable and accurate pressure reading for systems like fuel oil, lube oil, and water. Our gauges are built for reliability in harsh marine environments.

Accreditation and Certificates:

Approved-logo3-1
Overview
Our Marine Pressure Gauge is a key instrument for monitoring your ship’s systems. Its primary function is to provide a clear, local reading of liquid or gas pressure. Unlike standard gauges, its casing is filled with a damping fluid like glycerin. This fluid absorbs the constant vibration common in a ship’s engine room. You see a steady pointer and get a reliable reading. Accurate pressure data helps your crew identify potential problems before they cause an equipment failure.

Key Features:

  • Superior Vibration Resistance: A liquid-filled casing and robust internal mechanism protect the pointer from machine vibration and system pulsation. You get a stable, readable measurement.
  • Clear Dial Indication: Features a high-contrast dial with a clear scale. You can easily read the system pressure at a glance.
  • Durable Marine-Grade Construction: Uses a corrosion-resistant copper alloy for wetted parts. It is suitable for
    non-crystallizing,non-precipitating fluids.
  • Verified for Accuracy: Every gauge is verified according to strict quality procedures. We check the zero point, indication accuracy, and hysteresis to ensure reliable performance upon delivery.

Applications:

  • Fuel and Lube Oil Systems: Monitors pressure for engines, generators, and purifiers to ensure proper operation.
  • Cooling Water Systems: Measures pressure in freshwater and seawater cooling circuits for pumps and heat exchangers.
  • Hydraulic Systems: Provides local pressure readings for hydraulic power packs and steering gear.
  • Compressed Air Systems:Monitors pressure in service air and control air lines.

Installation & Maintenance:

Installation: Install the gauge onto a corresponding threaded port. Use a wrench on the designated flats of the connection socket, not on the case. Position the gauge for easy reading by the crew.
Maintenance: The gauge is a sealed unit and requires no internal maintenance. Periodically check that the casing is free of leaks and the viewing glass is clean. We recommend a verification cycle every 6 to 12 months.

Custom Options Available:

Need something specific?

We offer gauges in various dial sizes, pressure ranges, and connection thread types (Metric or Imperial).
Different model series are available for specific needs. You can also request specific logos or dial markings.

FAQ :

Q: Why is the gauge filled with liquid?

A: The liquid (usually glycerin) is a damping fluid. It absorbs vibration from engines and pumps. This stops the pointer from fluttering and allows you to get a stable, accurate reading.

Q: What liquids and gases can this gauge measure?

A: It is designed for liquids and gases that do not corrode copper alloys. This includes fresh water, sea water, fuel oil, lubricating oil, hydraulic oil, and compressed air.

Q: How often should the gauge be calibrated?

A: We recommend a professional calibration check every 6 to 12 months, or according to your vessel’s planned maintenance system (PMS), to ensure continued accuracy.
