1211 Handy
Roll-Up Manometer with Laboratory Accuracy
Dwyer® Slack Tube® Manometers are as accurate as the finest
laboratory "U" gages - yet they are made to roll up compactly
for easy carrying and to withstand rough usage.
Simply unroll the Dwyer® Slack Tube® Manometer
and set up to read static pressure, vacuum, or differential
pressure. Magnetic clips hold it firmly to any steel surface
or hang it on a nail. Turn connectors one revolution to
open. When the pressure is imposed, add the number of inches
one column travels up to the number of inches the other
column travels down. When reading is completed turn connectors
to seal columns, roll up manometer into compact coil and
tuck it away in its circular metal case or a tool box. No
fluid lost. No loose caps or inserts to lose.
Dwyer® Slack Tube® Manometers cover a wide
range of pressure readings - from 4-0-4 inches up to 60-0-60
inches. Use them in determining velocity and static pressures,
for leakage, fan and blower tests, calibrating control devices,
checking gas pressure and many other applications. All models
have flexible vinyl-plastic columns and flexible spring
steel scale calibrated in inches of water using water; and
inches of mercury using mercury. Scale is center-mounted
between columns to eliminate parallax error and has a full
2" sliding zero adjustment.
All Dwyer® Slack Tube® Manometers feature
exclusive molded nylon tubing connector assemblies with
rapid shutoff design in an acrylic plastic top. One turn
counter clockwise and the instrument is ready for use. Another
turn seals the tubes completely. Molded all-nylon construction
makes this assembly corrosion-proof, leakproof and practically
unbreakable. Tubing connectors extend horizontally allowing
360° freedom. Tubes won't bend or pinch off.
All models have over pressure safety traps
in the top of both columns to prevent loss of fluid due
to over range pressures or surges in pressure.
Slack Tube® Manometers are suitable for intermittent
total pressure to 50 psi and vacuum not exceeding 20" Hg.
Avoid temperatures above 130°F and continuous high total
pressure. Not for use with red gage oil; use only water
or mercury.
1212 Gas Pressure
Kit For Servicing Gas Appliances
A handy, complete kit containing a 16" Slack
Tube® Manometer, necessary tubing and connection fittings
for checking gas pressures in virtually all gas appliances
such as water heaters, furnaces, stoves and dryers. Different
range manometers may be specified at corresponding prices.
Compared to the cost of purchasing items separately the
assembly of component parts into kit form represents substantial
savings.
