Frequently asked questions

What media is ZX-08 suitable for?

ZX-08 is designed for clean, dry, non-corrosive gases and liquids compatible with carbon-steel or brass wetted parts — air, nitrogen, water, and light hydraulic oils. Not suitable for corrosive gases, seawater, acids, or chlorinated media.

What is the maximum pressure range available?

ZX-08 is available in ranges from 0–0.1 MPa up to 0–40 MPa. Choose a range so normal operating pressure falls between 25% and 75% of full scale for best gauge life.

Is ZX-08 suitable for pulsating pressure service?

In moderately pulsating lines (pumps, compressors), pair with a piston or sintered snubber installed in the process connection. For severe pulsation, upgrade to ZX-06 (liquid-filled), which self-dampens via glycerine fill.

What dial sizes are available?

Standard diameters: 40 mm, 50 mm, 63 mm, 100 mm, and 160 mm. 63 mm and 100 mm are the most common for panel and pipe mounting.

Can ZX-08 be bottom- or back-mounted?

Yes. Both lower (LM) and back/centre-back (CBM) process connections are available. Specify at order; no additional lead time for standard configurations.

What connection threads does ZX-08 use?

Standard: G1/4B and G1/2B (DIN 16288). Available on request: NPT 1/4", NPT 1/2", BSP 1/4", BSP 1/2". Confirm thread form when ordering to avoid cross-threading on NPT vs BSP.

How accurate is ZX-08?

Class 2.5 standard (±2.5% FS). Class 1.6 available for tighter process control. Both classes are verified on calibrated test benches before shipment.

What is the service life of ZX-08?

In clean, steady-pressure service, field life typically exceeds 5 years. Mechanical shock, vibration, or dirty media significantly reduce service life — use a diaphragm seal or liquid-filled gauge in those conditions.

Can the dial be customised?

Yes. Custom pressure ranges, dual-scale dials (bar+PSI, kPa+bar), logo printing, and coloured warning zones are available. No tooling fee for standard label customisations.

Does ZX-08 comply with any standard?

Designed and tested to EN 837-1 for design and performance. Each production batch is pressure-cycle tested; calibration certificates are available on request.
