Ashcroft 1490 Specifications
490 Low Pressure Diaphragm Gauge
1
• Glass-filled polysulfone case material,
won’t rust or dent
• Beryllium copper diaphragm
• Brass socket
• Wetted materials of beryllium copper,
brass, polysulfone and RTV silicone
The Ashcroft® Type 1490 low pressure
diaphragm gauge is designed to measure
pressure from 10 in. H
positive and negative pressures. This
gauge uses a very sensitive diaphragm
capsule to measure low pressure and
vacuum. The gauge is specific ally
designed for use whenever the pressure
medium is a gas that is not corrosive to
beryllium copper, brass, polysulfone and
RTV silicone. The polysulfone case is
suitable for intermittent or continuous
service on natural gas provided a .013
throttle plug is installed in the socket.
Typical applications are, but not limited
to, vacuum pumps, gas leak detectors, air
compressors, air filters, gas burners, gas
measurement, vacuum ovens, suction
regulators and respirators.
