Festo Pressure Gauges

Festo pressure gauges are precision-engineered instruments used to monitor and display the pressure level within compressed air systems. Built with robust materials and designed for easy readability, these gauges ensure consistent monitoring for safe and efficient operation of pneumatic machinery.

These gauges are available in various pressure ranges, dial diameters, connection types, and mounting styles β€” making them suitable for almost any industrial pneumatic setup.

⭐ Important: Festo pressure gauges deliver high accuracy, durability, and clear visibility, ensuring reliable pressure monitoring across all compressed air applications.

Design & Functionality

Festo pressure gauges function by converting internal system pressure into a mechanical pointer movement, allowing the operator to read the system pressure instantly. The gauges are designed with clear, high-contrast dials, shock-resistant housings, and industrial-grade internal mechanisms.

Available in multiple pressure ranges and connection orientations, these gauges integrate directly into Festo air preparation units, FRLs, and stand-alone compressed air lines.

Common variants include:
β€’ Standard analog pressure gauges
β€’ Glycerin-filled gauges for vibration damping
β€’ Back-mount and bottom-mount versions
β€’ Different dial sizes for visual flexibility

⭐ Important: High-contrast scales and shock-resistant construction ensure long service life and reliable readings in demanding environments.

Total Crossed Beams

(Applied to the functional coverage of pressure gauge types)

Wide product coverage ensures all monitoring needs are met, from low-pressure sensing to high-pressure system diagnostics.

Supports full operational capability regardless of installation position, system design, or pressure range requirements.

Engineered to maintain consistent pointer stability and reading accuracy throughout the entire operating range.

Beam Pitch Options

(Translated as: pressure ranges, dial sizes, mounting variants)

Multiple configuration options allow precise matching to the pneumatic system requirements.

Typical selectable features include:
β€’ Pressure ranges spanning low to high (e.g., 0–10 bar, 0–16 bar, etc.)
β€’ Dial diameters from compact to large formats
β€’ Bottom-mount or back-mount connections
β€’ Dry or glycerin-filled housings
β€’ Optional color-coded or dual-scale dials

Additional customization options:
β€’ Stainless steel, brass, or coated housings
β€’ Protective lenses for harsh environments
β€’ High-vibration-resistant models

⭐ Important: Wide range of pressure scales and mounting formats ensures perfect compatibility with virtually any pneumatic system.

Intrinsic Synchronism

Internal mechanical linkage between the pressure sensing element (typically a Bourdon tube) and the pointer ensures synchronized, accurate dial movement.

Designed to offer minimal friction, smooth travel, and consistent repeatability even under fluctuating system pressures.

Optional glycerin filling improves synchronism under vibration-heavy conditions such as machining or packaging equipment.

Operational Advantages

β€’ Clear, precise pressure reading for safe pneumatic operation
β€’ Long-lasting industrial design with robust materials
β€’ Compatible with all Festo air preparation systems and pneumatic lines
β€’ Resistant to vibration, shock, and environmental stress
β€’ Low-maintenance, mechanical design with no power consumption

Applications: Air preparation units (FRLs), machinery maintenance, pneumatic tools, automation equipment, conveying systems, and general compressed air monitoring.
