Kodiak Controls KC1013560 Gauge

The Kodiak Controls KC1013560 (also identified as Kodiak 1013560) is a professional-grade 3.5-inch pressure gauge engineered for high-visibility monitoring in demanding HVACR and industrial environments. This 0-60 PSI utility gauge features a 1/4" NPT lower mount connection, making it an ideal drop-in replacement for standard air, water, oil, and non-corrosive gas applications. Built with a dry case and a black steel housing, this unit is designed to withstand the rigors of the mechanical room while providing an ASME B40.1 Grade B accuracy (±3/2/3%) that technicians depend on during system diagnostics and preventative maintenance.

Equipped with a robust bronze wetted material and deep-socket brass internals, the KC1013560 ensures chemical compatibility with common service fluids. The large 3-1/2" dial face offers superior readability compared to standard 2-inch utility gauges, allowing for more precise tracking of refrigerant line pressure or water supply levels. Whether you are performing a pressure test on a new installation or replacing a failed analog pressure gauge in an existing manifold, this 1/4" bottom mount gauge provides the reliable mechanical feedback needed to verify peak system performance without the fluff of complex digital interfaces.

• Enhanced Readability: The oversized 3.5" dial face allows for quick status checks from a distance, reducing errors during HVAC troubleshooting.
• Broad Media Compatibility: Suitable for monitoring any media non-corrosive to copper alloys, including compressed air, water, and hydraulic fluids.
• Standardized Fit: The 1/4" NPT male connection ensures seamless integration with most 101 series utility gauge ports and commercial manifolds.
• Industrial Construction: Features a glass lens and a steel bezel that resists yellowing and scratching better than polycarbonate alternatives in high-heat environments.

Can this gauge be used for vacuum applications?
No, this is a positive pressure gauge rated specifically for 0-60 PSI. For vacuum service, you should source a dedicated compound gauge or a 30" Hg vacuum unit.

Is the KC1013560 suitable for high-vibration equipment?
This is a dry case utility gauge. For compressors or pumps with excessive pulsation or vibration, we recommend using a liquid-filled variant or installing a snubber to protect the internal bourdon tube.

How do I calibrate this gauge to atmospheric pressure?
While the 101 series is factory-calibrated, technicians can verify zero-point alignment by removing the bezel; however, it is standard practice to treat these as non-adjustable field instruments for commercial HVAC service.
