FEASTERVILLE, PA -- -- AMETEK U.S. Gauge offers the SOLFRUNT Model 1981  Advantage  providing users with a dampened movement option that has many of the benefits of a liquid-filled gauge without the need to periodically fill or replace the liquid.

The SOLFRUNT  Advantage  incorporates a unique self-contained movement dampening capsule that minimizes the effects of shock and vibration in demanding applications.

Both the SOLFRUNT Model 1981  Advantage  and the Model 1981, which is available both dry and liquid-filled, are 4-1/2-inch process pressure gauges with all 316L stainless steel wetted surfaces and a seamless bourdon tube design.  Both models have a PET turret-style case that provides superior impact strength and resistance to a broad range of chemicals for chemical and petrochemical processing applications.

The Model 1981 and 1981  Advantage  gauges are supplied in 30 vacuum, compound and pressure ranges from 30-inches hg vacuum through 11,600 psi.  The Model 1981 can be liquid filled at the factory, by a local stocking distributor, or by using a liquid fill kit.  Its low-connected turret case can be easily filled using the appropriate conversion kit. Its E-Z Fill design allows for field filling without special tools. Span adjustments on both models can be accomplished from the rear of the case without disturbing the gauge internals.  Pointer adjustments are easily made by removing a ring and window.

SOLFRUNT gauges are backed by U.S. Gauge’s 100-year experience in process measurement and are competitively priced and available from U.S. Gauge’s worldwide network of authorized distributors.

AMETEK U.S. Gauge is a unit of AMETEK, Inc., a leading global manufacturer of electronic instruments and electric motors with annual sales of more than $1 billion.
