9 Bar 316SS Electric Contact Pressure Gauge 100mm Silicone Oil Filled Pressure Gauge 4 Inch
100mm Electric Contact Pressure Gauge 9 Bar Silicone Filled
Product Introduction
Featuring a 316 stainless steel Bourdon tube and silicone oil filling, this pressure gauge is suitable for operating environments involving vibration and pressure pulsation. The electrical contact mechanism allows circuits to open or close at preset pressure values, making the gauge an effective solution for compressors, pumps, hydraulic systems and PLC-controlled equipment. Liquid-filled versions help reduce the influence of vibration on pointer movement and contact performance.

Product Advantages
1. Integrated Monitoring and Control
Combines mechanical pressure indication with electrical switching functionality within a single instrument.
2. Silicone Oil Filled Design
The silicone filling helps reduce the effects of vibration and pulsating pressure, contributing to smoother pointer movement and more stable contact operation.
3. Corrosion Resistant Wetted Parts
316 stainless steel pressure elements provide compatibility with a broad range of industrial media.
4. Reliable Switching Performance
Adjustable electrical contacts support pressure alarm and circuit control functions required in industrial systems.
Working Principle
As pressure enters the Bourdon tube, the tube deforms elastically and drives the pointer across the dial for visual indication. Simultaneously, the pointer actuates preset electrical contacts when reaching designated pressure values, enabling alarm activation or automatic control of connected equipment.
How to Select an Electric Contact Pressure Gauge
- Select a pressure range suitable for the operating system.
- Confirm whether vibration resistance is required and specify silicone filling if necessary.
- Determine the required contact configuration for alarm or switching functions.
- Verify compatibility with PLC or relay control systems.
