OVERVIEW

Technical Overview of the ESAB High Pressure Gauge

The ESAB 999444 is a precision-engineered pressure gauge designed for high-pressure industrial applications. Featuring a 2.50-inch diameter dial, this instrument provides clear and accurate readings for systems operating up to 4000 PSI. The scale is calibrated to deliver reliable metrics for cylinder content monitoring, making it an essential component for gas distribution systems and heavy-duty welding regulators. The unit utilizes a Lower Back Mount (LBM) configuration, which is the industry standard for most regulator bodies, ensuring seamless integration with existing equipment without the need for adapters.

Constructed with a durable plastic (PLA) case, this gauge is designed to withstand the rigors of industrial environments while maintaining a lightweight profile. The internal mechanism is built to resist vibration and shock, common in workshop settings, ensuring the needle remains stable and accurate over time. The 0-4000 PSI range is specifically suited for high-pressure gases such as Oxygen, Argon, Nitrogen, and Helium, covering the standard fill pressures of most industrial cylinders (typically 2000-3000 PSI) with ample headroom for safety and testing purposes.

Maintenance professionals and procurement specialists will appreciate the standardized specifications of this component. The clear lens provides excellent visibility of the dial face, which features high-contrast markings for quick assessment. Whether used for MRO (Maintenance, Repair, and Operations) stock or immediate repair of compromised regulators, the ESAB 999444 delivers the performance and reliability expected from a leading manufacturer in the welding and cutting industry.

FAQ

While not explicitly specified in the short description, 2.5-inch gauges typically use a 1/4" NPT thread. However, some regulators use 1/8" NPT. Please verify your regulator's port size before ordering.

No. This is a 4000 PSI gauge intended for high-pressure cylinders (like Oxygen or Argon). Acetylene gauges typically range only up to 400 PSI (red line at 15 PSI) for delivery or slightly higher for cylinder content, but never 4000 PSI.

LBM stands for Lower Back Mount. This means the threaded connection protrudes from the back of the gauge case, which is the standard orientation for mounting onto the body of a gas regulator.

The 'PLA' in the product description indicates a Plastic case. This material is lightweight and corrosion-resistant, suitable for most indoor shop environments.

Ensure the system is fully depressurized and the cylinder valve is closed. Remove the old gauge using a wrench on the brass stem (never twist the case). Apply appropriate thread sealant to the new gauge threads and tighten firmly into the port.

It is compatible with non-corrosive high-pressure gases such as Oxygen, Nitrogen, Argon, Helium, and CO2, provided the pressure does not exceed the gauge's 4000 PSI limit.

Standard replacement gauges for general welding applications typically do not come with individual calibration certificates unless specified for laboratory use.
