MTM Hydro's Brass Pressure Gauge Fittings with Port are meant to be paired with the top-mount Pressure Gauges offered in several sizes of gauge between 5,000 PSI and 10,000 PSI. With 3/8" Quick Couplers on both ends, this tool can quickly be relocated anywhere in your pressurized line to measure baseline and performance pressure. Once installed, this device effectively measures running pressure and catches spikes that occur when your gun trigger is released or engaged. This particular fitting is rated to 2,700 PSI; for higher ratings, upgrade to 24.0101, which is the same item in Stainless Steel.
A primary fixed location is most commonly found immediately after the pump or on an unloader port to measure 'Pressure at the Pump' and catch pressure spikes. This location will also alert you of cavitation in pump that you may not hear or feel. The needle on the gauge will bounce and appear to be trembling.
A second, temporary position is at the base of the spray gun for intermittent checking of pressure to ensure your nozzle does not need to be replaced. This will also catch pressure spikes and alert you of pressure changes over time as your nozzle enlarges due to wear.
