   • 55mm diameter, compact and ideal for installations where space is limited or where a smaller dial is required for ease of installation and reading.

2. Pressure Range:

   • 0 to 10 Bar (0 to 145 PSI). This range is suitable for monitoring pressures in low to moderate pressure systems such as water filtration, compressed air systems, or hydraulic circuits.

3. Material:

   • 316 Stainless Steel Tube: The use of 316 stainless steel ensures excellent resistance to corrosion and makes the gauge suitable for harsh and chemical environments.
   • The stainless steel construction ensures long service life even in corrosive environments.

4. Connection:

   • 1/4 NPT Back Mount: This connection type is ideal for mounting the gauge directly on the back of a panel, pipe, or other equipment. The 1/4 NPT (National Pipe Thread) is commonly used for industrial connections.

5. Accuracy:

   • The gauge is designed to offer accurate readings for low-pressure systems, ensuring reliable performance in a variety of industrial processes.

6. Applications:

   • This gauge is designed for use in a wide range of applications, including water systems, compressed air systems, hydraulic circuits, general industrial use, and chemical processing, among others.

7. Temperature Limits:

   • It can operate in a wide range of temperatures, making it suitable for use in both high and low-temperature environments, though typical operating temperatures for Stewarts pressure gauges are generally from -20°C to +60°C. Always check the datasheet for specific details.

8. Scale:

   • The gauge typically has both Bar and PSI scales for flexible reading, allowing users to read pressure in the unit most appropriate for their industry or region.
