Robust Performance for Industrial DemandsEngineered for industrial reliability, the SZ-5000-1KPA gauge ensures accurate differential pressure readings for air and non-corrosive gases. The robust polycarbonate casing and brass components deliver resilience in harsh environmental conditions, while IP40 protection safeguards the device from dust infiltration. Its overpressure limit of twice the full scale further guarantees durability in demanding applications.
Versatile Application in Critical EnvironmentsIdeal for HVAC monitoring, cleanrooms, and filter status checks, this differential pressure gauge integrates seamlessly into both new and existing setups. Accessories like mounting screws and its surface-mount design facilitate quick, flexible installation. The analog display supports clear and immediate readings, streamlining pressure monitoring for engineers and facility managers.
Precision and Simplicity in DesignThe SZ-5000-1KPA combines accuracy (2% FS) with user-friendly construction. Its vertical mounting and compact body (60 mm diameter) allow for easy fitting in constrained spaces. The polycarbonate injection-molded finish ensures lasting performance while the instantaneous response time aids in rapid system diagnostics.
FAQs of Sensocon USA Miniature Low Cost Differential Pressure Gauge Series Sz-5000-1KPA:
Q: How do I install the Sensocon SZ-5000-1KPA differential pressure gauge?
