Discussion Overview
The discussion revolves around finding suitable tank gauges that measure both pressure and temperature for compressed air applications. Participants share various sources and suggestions for purchasing these gauges, including preferences for digital options and specific measurement ranges.
Discussion Character
- Exploratory, Technical explanation, Debate/contested, Homework-related
Main Points Raised
- One participant inquires about where to buy tank gauges that measure both pressure (1-50 psi) and temperature (0-~500 degrees F) for compressed air.
- Another participant suggests checking McMaster for potential options.
- A different source, Omega, is mentioned as having a wide range of products, though potentially at a higher cost.
- Neilsen Kellerman is recommended for custom equipment, along with Davies instruments as another option.
- The original poster expresses difficulty in finding a temperature gauge specifically for compressed air, indicating that pressure gauges are more readily available.
- The original poster also seeks advice on whether there are compressed air tanks available that come with an attached temperature gauge.
Areas of Agreement / Disagreement
Participants provide various suggestions and sources, but there is no consensus on a single best option or solution. The discussion remains open-ended with multiple avenues explored.
Contextual Notes
Participants have not specified certain assumptions regarding gauge compatibility or the specific requirements for the gauges, which may affect the recommendations.
