Key Advantages & Benefits:

• Saves Gauges: Dramatically extends the life of your pressure gauges by protecting the internal Bourdon tube from fatigue.
• Accurate Readings: Eliminates needle flutter, allowing technicians to take precise, steady pressure readings on vibrating machinery.
• Fully Adjustable: Features an external needle valve allowing the user to fine-tune the dampening effect while the system is running.
• Fail-Safe: Also acts as an emergency flow restrictor; if the gauge is accidentally broken off, the snubber prevents massive fluid loss from the main line.

Versatile Applications:

• All positive displacement (PDI) pump systems
• Heavy-duty pneumatic grease pump lines
• High-pressure hydraulic power units
• Coolant pump monitoring

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ):

• Q: Do I need a snubber if I already have a liquid-filled gauge? A: Liquid filling helps dampen physical machine vibration. A snubber dampens the internal fluid pressure spikes. For high-pulsation piston pumps, using both together provides the ultimate gauge protection.
• Q: Will the snubber cause the gauge to read lower than actual pressure? A: No. It only slows down how fast the fluid enters the gauge. Once the fluid stabilizes (usually in a fraction of a second), the gauge will display the true, accurate system pressure.
