Pressure Gauge Options Seven Steps to Select a Pressure Gauge CODE DESCRIPTION PRESSURE GAUGE TYPE 1. ACCURACY TEST & PROCESS GAUGES STAINLESS STEEL CASE INDUSTRIAL GAUGES COMMERCIAL GAUGES 3% 0.25% 3-2- For a mechanical pressure gauge, accuracy is defined as a percentage of the full-scale range. While requirements differ from one industry to another, the following are general guidelines: % 2-1 0.5 GENERAL SERVICE 1490/1495 SERIES 1005/1000 SERIES PROCESS GAUGES SPECIAL SERVICE • Test Gauges and Standards: 0.25% through 0.10% full scale accuracies. -2% 1.0% 1009 (21⁄2˝, 31⁄2˝) TEST GAUGES 1009 (41⁄2˝, 6˝) • Critical Processes: 0.5% full scale accuracy. • General Industrial Processes: 1.0% accuracy. Less Critical Commercial Uses: 2.0% accuracy. Refer to 1008A 1008S 1007P 1001T ASME B40.100 for more information on accuracy. XLL 2. DIAL SIZE PLUS!
