MORE ABOUT THIS ITEM
The Magnahelic guage is the industry standard to measure fan and blower pressures, filter resistance, air velocity, furnace draft, pressure drop across orifice plates, liquid levels with bubbler systems, and pressures in fluid amplifier or fluidic systems. The gauge's motion is damped with high-viscosity silicone fluid. The zero adjustment screw is conveniently located in the plastic cover, and is accessible without removing the cover. O-ring seal provides pressure tightness. Rugged design resists shock, vibration, and overpressure.
The helix is precision-made from an alloy of high magnetic permeability. Mounted in jeweled bearings, it turns freely, following the maganetic field to move the pointer across the scale. The samarium cobalt magnet is mounted at one end of the range spring and rotates the helix without mechanical linkages.

FAQs of Sensocon USA Magnehelic Gauges 0 To 500 MM WC:
Q: How do I install the Sensocon USA Magnehelic Gauge for optimal performance?
A: For best results, the gauge should be installed on a stable surface using the supplied mounting hardware. Both back and bottom port connections (1/8 NPT) are available, accommodating versatile pipe or tubing arrangements. Ensure the device is level, and connect only to air or non-corrosive gas systems within the specified pressure range for accurate readings.
Q: What types of applications is this Magnehelic gauge suitable for?
A: This gauge is ideal for monitoring differential pressure in HVAC systems, cleanrooms, filters, and industrial process lines. It accurately measures air and non-corrosive gases, making it suitable for supplier, manufacturer, and wholesaler use in various industrial sectors.
Q: When should I use the external zero adjustment screw?
A: Use the external zero adjustment screw to recalibrate the reference point whenever you notice the needle does not return to zero with no pressure applied. Regular calibration helps maintain accuracy and ensures reliable operation over time.
Q: Where can this Magnehelic gauge be mounted?
A: The device supports both surface and flush mountings, allowing it to be installed on flat panels, control boards, or machinery in a variety of industrial and laboratory settings. Its compact 120 mm diameter makes it easy to fit in most standard installations.
Q: What is the process for maintaining or cleaning the gauge?
A: Routine maintenance involves checking the connections for leaks, verifying zero alignment, and cleaning the acrylic cover with a non-abrasive cloth. Avoid exposing the device to corrosive chemicals or pressures exceeding the rated overpressure limit of 15 psi to ensure longevity.
Q: How does this gauge ensure accuracy and durability in industrial environments?
A: It features a die-cast aluminum case, precision-balanced aluminum pointer, acrylic cover, and powder-coated finish for durability. The IP54 enclosure keeps out dust and moisture, while the 2% full-scale accuracy ensures consistent, reliable measurement in challenging conditions.
Q: What are the key benefits of using this differential pressure gauge?
A: Key advantages include fast response time, wide temperature tolerance, external adjustment for easy calibration, and robust protection against industrial contaminants. The analog display is quick to interpret, supporting fast decision-making in critical control environments.
