Design features that separate Airedale depth gauges from the rest

  • Fully printed linear dial with 300-degree scale. This gives a consistently marked dial which ensures precise sub-divisions and accuracy of calibration at all points on the scale. It also makes the dial clearer and easier to read.
  • Beryllium copper tube. Proven and reliable beryllium copper bourdon tube pressure element. Heat treated for repeatability and lasting precision.
  • Ease of re-calibration. The linear scale of the Airedale Gauge simplifies re-calibration. (Other gauges with non-linear scales are very difficult to re-calibrate because of the inconsistency of the markings.)
  • Robust precision movement. Test gauge quality with maximum and minimum stops.
  • Fully balanced lightweight pointer. Gives increased responsiveness and smooth indication of even the smallest changes in pressure.
  • Value of smallest division stated on dial. Minimising reading errors.
  • Zero adjustment at 3 o'clock. This minimises corrosion of the zero mechanism occurring in other depth gauges which have adjustments at 6 o'clock.
  • Zero adjustment pinion runs in delrin bushes. Maintaining smooth running and protecting the bezel from screwdriver scratching
  • Light and robust case. Finished with the latest powder coating methods.
