Pressure gauges

Post by jungle »

Anyone know where I can buy a low pressure pressure gauge. It is for a pool sand filter. I am not tight but paying almost 20 quid as quoted by the pool suppliers is a bit of a rip off.

I would try shopping online, either lazada.com or aliexpress.com, or a regular Google search.

Type of pressure gauge and application affect the price. Bordon tube types not expensive but doubt they will try to sell you a magnahelic type which is on the other end of the scale.. Also the media that needs to be monitored - gas, liquid.. corrosion resistance.. all play a part

I'm sure it's just a delta-psi gauge with an N.P.T. connection. 100psi? gauge or less?
I don't think £20 is really that much for a gauge.
Alternatively; find the connection and gauge parameter and order through eBay-HK.

There are many different types of gauges on Lazada for around 200 baht that I sure will work, probably the best thing to do is go to the web site of the filer supplier and get the gauge specifications from there, then look for a similar gauge from Lazada.

Or give me they type of filter and I'll try find out what you need and check Lazada for you.

Is chlorine used in pools here? If so, I'd think the material needed to protect against it would be a big part of the cost.
