6. Operating Instructions
The CHBMSS Half Steel Pressure Gauge is designed for straightforward operation:
- Reading the Gauge: The gauge displays pressure in both bar and MPa. The inner scale typically indicates MPa, and the outer scale indicates bar. Read the value indicated by the needle.
- Vacuum Measurement: For vacuum applications, the needle will move into the negative range, indicating vacuum pressure.
- Environmental Considerations: Ensure the operating environment is within the specified temperature and humidity ranges for optimal performance.
7. Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures the accuracy and longevity of your pressure gauge:
- Cleaning: Clean the gauge face and casing with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
- Inspection: Periodically check for any physical damage, such as cracks in the casing or bent needles. Ensure the connection remains secure and free of leaks.
- Calibration: For critical applications, periodic calibration by a certified technician is recommended to maintain accuracy.

8. Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your pressure gauge, consider the following:
- No Reading/Incorrect Reading:
- Check for blockages in the pressure line.
- Verify the gauge is correctly connected and sealed.
- Ensure the pressure source is active.
- Fluctuating Needle:
- This may indicate pressure pulsations in the system. Consider installing a snubber or dampener.
- Check for excessive vibration at the mounting point.
- Leakage at Connection:
- Tighten connections appropriately.
- Replace seals or thread tape if necessary.
