Looking for reliable remote pressure monitoring? Our high-quality Remote Reading Pressure Gauges & Remote Pressure Gauges offer 4-20mA, RS485 outputs for pumps, HVAC, and industrial systems. Accurate, durable, and easy to install.
What is a Remote Reading Pressure Gauge?
A Remote Reading Pressure Gauge, often called a Remote Pressure Gauge or remote transmission gauge, is an essential instrument for modern industrial monitoring and control systems. Unlike traditional local dial gauges, it converts the physical pressure measurement into a standardized electrical signal (such as 4-20mA or 0-10V DC) or a digital signal (like RS485). This signal can be transmitted over long distances to a central location—such as a PLC (Programmable Logic Controller), SCADA system, or control room display—enabling real-time monitoring, data logging, process automation, and alarms without needing personnel to be physically present at the measurement point.
Why Choose Our Remote Pressure Gauges?
Our gauges bridge the gap between robust mechanical measurement and modern digital control, offering reliability where it matters most.

Common Applications of Remote Transmission Gauges
Where are Remote Reading Pressure Gauges used? Anywhere you need to monitor pressure from a distance or integrate it into an automated system.
Application Gallery
- Industrial Pumps & Compressors: Monitor discharge/suction pressure for performance and safety.
- HVAC/R Systems: Chilled water, hot water, and refrigerant pressure monitoring in large buildings.
- Process Industries (Chemical, Oil & Gas): Critical for pipeline, vessel, and reactor pressure monitoring in control loops.
- Water & Wastewater Treatment: Monitor filter pressure, pump status, and tank levels.
- Power Generation: Steam, feedwater, and lubrication system monitoring.
- Manufacturing & Automation: Hydraulic and pneumatic system control on production lines.
Choosing the Right Model: Output Guide
Selecting the correct Remote Pressure Gauge depends on your system's input requirements.
- For PLC Analog Input Modules: Choose the 4-20mA output gauge. This is the most common, noise-resistant industrial standard for long-distance transmission.
- For Direct Computer or Data Logger Connection: Choose the RS485 Modbus output gauge for multi-drop network capability and digital data integrity.
- For Simpler Control Systems or Variable Speed Drives (VFDs): The 0-10V output gauge is a straightforward, cost-effective solution.
Installation & Wiring Notes
- Mounting: Install the gauge vertically on a stable surface or panel using the provided bracket. Ensure it is easily visible for local reading if required.
- Process Connection: Use appropriate sealant tape or thread sealant on the male threads. Tighten securely to prevent leaks, but avoid over-torquing.
- Electrical Connection: For 4-20mA models, connect the two wires in series with the power supply (typically 12-24V DC) and the PLC input. Observe polarity.
- Commissioning: Once powered, the gauge will output a signal corresponding to the measured pressure (e.g., 4mA = zero pressure, 20mA = full-scale pressure).
FAQs: Remote Pressure Gauges
Q: What is the main difference between a Remote Pressure Gauge and a Pressure Transmitter?
A: A Remote Pressure Gauge has both a local dial and an electrical output. A pressure transmitter typically has no local dial and is a smaller device focused solely on generating the output signal. Our gauges offer the benefit of both.
Q: What is the maximum transmission distance for a 4-20mA signal?
A: With proper wire gauge, a 4-20mA signal can reliably transmit over 1000 meters or more, as it is a current signal resistant to voltage drop.
Q: Can you provide custom pressure ranges and outputs?
A: Yes. We specialize in customizing gauges for specific ranges, process connections, electrical outputs, and dial logos. Contact us with your requirements.
