Choosing the right Wika pressure instrument

Local indication or electrical signal?

For purely local indication, mechanical pressure gauges are the right choice. If the pressure has to be passed on or monitored, select a contact pressure gauge with switch contacts or a pressure transmitter (DMU series) with an analogue output signal.

Measuring range and accuracy

The measuring range should be chosen so that the operating pressure sits in the middle of the scale. Diaphragm pressure gauges (MSP) are used for low pressures in the millibar range, the fine measuring versions (MSF, MWF) for high accuracy.

Mounting position and design

  • Vertical - for wall or pipe mounting with a back connection.
  • Horizontal - for a bottom connection, for example in control panels.
  • Case size - nominal sizes of 100 mm and 160 mm are common for good readability.

Medium and operating conditions

With vibration or pulsating pressure, glycerine filled safety pressure gauges (GLY) keep the pointer steady and give a long service life. Also mind the material and the process connection to suit the measured medium.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions about Wika

What does Wika manufacture?

Wika is a German manufacturer of measuring instruments and produces, among other things, pressure gauges, pressure transmitters, thermometers, sensors and calibration instruments for industrial applications.

How does a precision pressure gauge differ from a standard pressure gauge?

Precision pressure gauges of the MSF and MWF series offer higher indication accuracy and suit test and calibration tasks where precise pressure values matter.

What is a contact pressure gauge used for?

A contact pressure gauge (MWK and MSK series) combines the pressure indication with one or more switch contacts and serves for limit monitoring, for example to trigger a signal when a pressure is exceeded or undershot.

When does a glycerine filled pressure gauge make sense?

Glycerine filled safety pressure gauges (GLY marking) dampen vibration and pressure pulsation. They keep the pointer steady and give a longer service life in applications with mechanical stress.

What is the difference between a pressure gauge and a pressure transmitter?

A pressure gauge indicates the pressure mechanically on site, while a pressure transmitter of the DMU series converts the pressure into an electrical analogue signal that can be passed on to a controller or a display.
