Description
● Connects to a standard male garden hose fitting
● Provides quick confirmation of available water pressure and flow rate
● Use to determine equipment needed for existing setup or a new facility
● Can also be mounted in-line with installed equipment to determine operational water pressure
● Useful for selecting metering tips based on the available pressure
● Troubleshoot existing setup; see if and when the water pressure fluctuates
● Includes three flow restrictors for testing to see if enough water volume and pressure are available
● Also includes a blank (undrilled) plug that the user can modify to simulate other flow rates
Instructions
- Select the flow restrictor most similar to the flow rate of the unit being installed
- Thread the flow restrictor into the inside threads on the MGH fitting
- Install the gauge on the water line as close to the unit installation point as possible
- Read the gauge when water is flowing to simulate unit operation
- This is the “dynamic” water pressure, which is specified in unit requirements and used for metering tip
selection - Reading the gauge without water flowing will display the “static” water pressure, and this is not a useful
measurement
- This is the “dynamic” water pressure, which is specified in unit requirements and used for metering tip
