Re: [PSUBS-MAILIST] Blue Book gauges

Jim you might want to look at http://www.weksler-gauges.com/ as another vendor for depth gages. In the pressure gage business, what we call a depth gage, they call a altitude gage. You can buy these altitude gages in feet of water or cross labeled with psi and foot of water. I believe you can also get the in SI units. I purchased one of these meters for my boat as a back up to measure depth in the event I lost primary and backup power to my PLC. I use a pressure transducer as a primary measurement. With a tranducer/PLC you can calculate depth for both salt and fresh water. Also ABS requires a backup depth gage. While I was happy with the gage, the lead time was two months. The cost was reasonable.

Hi Martin,

I also looked at the BlueBook gauges and while they had several depth gauges none that I could find went over 690 feet. There is quite a variety on page 399 in various depth an sizes.

Unless someone has a different source, I will just use pressure gauges. I have a guy that does sign work for me from time to time and he says it's no big deal to print up a decal to recalibrate. Now I will need to look for gauges with removable bezels.

Also, If anyone can help I am looking for two good quality voltage gauges from about 30 - 40 volts.

If anyone has an idea please let me know.

Martin, you put a tip online in October of 07 about Xantrex but they do not seem to have anything at 36 volts.

Best Regards,

Jim K

Hi see the blue book mentioned I drew attention to it the other day , because I noticed they had a large section on analog and digital pressure gauges that are annotated in PSI, Bar, Ft etc

Well worth a look
