Custom Pressure Gauges: Sometimes They Make Sense And Cents!
Everyone likes to buy product off the shelf. It makes good sense. It is cheaper and more widely available.
When designing equipment it makes good sense to use commonly available component for both lower cost and more readily available spare parts.
Despite our best intentions, sometimes things are overlooked and errors made in the design process.
This often leads to one area of the equipment that has a conglomeration of parts to adapt the two originally desired parts together.
When the happens (and it does happen) and one of the components is a pressure gauge, it is worth your time to investigate a custom connection gauge that incorporates all desired changes right into the fitting of the gauge.
How many times have you seen a piece of equipment with one or more gauges on it where the gauges have at least one fitting between it and the line it is designed to measure. Maybe a manifold was designed with
