Conbraco 20-204-00 Water Gauge
For industrial fluid monitoring, the Conbraco 20-204-00 Water Gauge is a heavy pattern solution engineered for rigorous boiler and tank applications. This set features 1/2" NPT male connections and a rough bronze body construction, providing high-strength durability in high-demand environments. Each unit comes equipped with a 5/8" OD x 12" length standard glass, secured by high-grade EPDM glass seals and a Teflon stem packing assembly to ensure leak-free operation under thermal cycling. The integrated aluminum type wheel offers a distinct tactile grip for manual isolation, even in tight mechanical rooms. Built for high-pressure performance, this gauge set is rated for 400 PSI at 100°F and maintains a 200 PSI rating at 400°F, making it a reliable standard for veteran contractors handling liquid level verification. Its heavy pattern design ensures a more robust valve body compared to standard duty series, catering specifically to professional HVACR and steam system installs.
