1435-0215RP - Victor 63mm Delivery Pressure Gauge 0-150 PSI

Technical Overview of the Victor 1435-0215RP Pressure Gauge

The Victor 1435-0215RP is a precision-engineered pressure gauge designed specifically for the delivery side of industrial gas regulators. With a dial diameter of 63mm (approximately 2.5 inches), this gauge provides a clear and legible display of output pressure, which is critical for maintaining consistent flow rates in oxy-fuel cutting, welding, and heating applications. The gauge features a dual-scale faceplate, indicating pressure in both Imperial units (0-150 PSI) and Metric units (0-10 Bar), making it versatile for shops that utilize different measurement standards.

Constructed to meet Victor's rigorous standards for quality and safety, this gauge utilizes a robust internal mechanism likely based on a Bourdon tube design, which ensures linear movement and accurate repeatability across the pressure range. The 0-150 PSI range is specifically calibrated for low-pressure delivery, commonly used for oxygen, inert gases (such as Argon or Helium), and other non-corrosive industrial gases where delivery pressures do not exceed 150 PSI. The larger 63mm face is an upgrade over smaller 1.5-inch or 2-inch gauges often found on compact regulators, offering reduced parallax error and easier monitoring from a distance.

As a genuine Victor replacement part, the 1435-0215RP ensures compatibility with specific Victor regulator bodies that accept 63mm gauges. Proper instrumentation is vital for the safe operation of gas distribution systems; a compromised gauge can lead to inaccurate pressure settings, affecting weld quality or cut precision. This unit is designed to withstand the vibration and minor shocks typical of an industrial environment, although care should always be taken to protect gauges from direct impact. When installing, technicians should ensure the regulator is fully depressurized and use appropriate thread sealant if required by the specific regulator design, ensuring the orientation of the gauge face is vertical for optimal accuracy.

This component is essential for MRO (Maintenance, Repair, and Operations) professionals looking to refurbish or repair existing Victor gas equipment. By replacing damaged or illegible gauges with OEM parts, users maintain the UL listing and safety integrity of their gas control equipment. The clear markings, durable lens, and corrosion-resistant case make the 1435-0215RP a reliable choice for extending the service life of valuable regulator assets.
