Construction & Operation

All brass Construction with 3" API screwed connection. The thick elastomer ring dovetailed into the recess in the cover provides maximum vapour tightness and security against sparking. Brass body and cover. Screwed 3" API.


PRESSURE TYPE GAUGE HATCH SIZES - 4" (100 mm), 6" (150 mm), 8" (200 mm)

Construction & Operation

Cast iron cover incorporates a heavy synthetic rubber ring dovetailed into a recess, In 4" and 6" sizes a special moulded plastic seat inserted into the base ensures maximum vapour tightness and security against sparking. A drip ring drains condensate away from the joint face to minimise the effects of freezing. Uniform tightness at all points between the cover and the base is provided by a spherical self draining connection between the lever and the cover. Should sticking occur due to infrequent opening the handle use to screw down the cover can be removed and used to loosen the cover by continuing to rotate anti-clockwise until the cover lifts.
