Industrial Pressure Gauge 0 to 160 psi
The Ashcroft 251009 is an industrial pressure gauge designed for monitoring system pressure up to 160 psi. It features a 2 1/2 inch nominal dial with white face and +/- 1.00 percent accuracy. The case uses 304 stainless steel with a polycarbonate lens and offers IP54 or IP65 protection depending on vent plug configuration.
Suited for fixed industrial monitoring
This gauge suits operators who need a lower back NPT connection on process lines or equipment panels. The 1/4 inch male process connection fits standard fittings. Buyers who require a field-fillable case for vibration damping or a different mounting orientation should look at other models.
Verify connection and environment before ordering
Confirm the 1/4 inch NPT male thread matches your existing port specification. Check that the lower back connection location fits your panel layout. Ensure the IP54 or IP65 rating meets the ingress protection needed for the installation environment.

Questions about this item
What thread size must my existing fitting have to accept the 1/4 in NPT male connection on this gauge?
The gauge uses a 1/4 in NPT male process connection, so the mating port must be a 1/4 in NPT female thread.
Will the 304 stainless steel case and IP54 vented rating hold up in the same wash-down area where my older brass gauges corroded?
The 304 stainless steel case resists corrosion better than brass, and the IP54 rating with the vent plug open protects against splashing water.
After installation, how do I verify the +/- 1.00 percent accuracy on the 0 to 160 psi scale?
Apply a known reference pressure and confirm the needle reads within 1.6 psi of that value across the 0 to 160 psi range.
