The Meriam Instrument MGF16BN digital pressure gauge successfully addresses the modern demands of process pressure measurement. Pressure ranges are available to 5,000 PSIG at standard accuracy of ±0.25% of full scale and optional accuracy of ±0.1% of full scale. Compound gauges that can be used for positive pressure measurements and vacuum measurements are also available.

The display is a 4½ digit LCD with 0.5" high numerals and a lower alphanumeric display for engineering units and to aid in set up. Each gauge includes up to 15 field selectable engineering units depending on the sensor range. The selectable units include PSIG, kiloPascals, megaPascals, millibar, bar, atmospheres, kilograms per square centimeter, grams per square centimeter, centimeters of water, ounces per square inch, feet of water, inches of water, millimeters of mercury, Torr, and inches of mercury.

Other standard features include min/max capture, zeroing, pass code program lock-out, adjustable display shutoff time and field recalibration. The housing is ABS/polycarbonate and is NEMA 4X rated. Wetted components are 316L stainless steel for compatibility with many process fluids. Process connection is via a 1⁄4" MNPT 316L stainless steel fitting. The gauge is powered by two AA alkaline batteries.

Typical applications are instrumentation and control in the process industries, hydraulics, pneumatics, industrial gases and OEM’s.
