Compound Pointer Pressure Gauge
Item Code: 8488
Dual-pointer pressure indicator systems deliver accurate measurements for mud, cementing, acidizing, and fracturing operations. Forum Compound Pointer Pressure Gauge systems accurately measure and display pump pressures for downhole cementing, high-pressure hydraulic fracturing, or acidizing oil pay operations.
A standard pointer provides a full 360° sweep of the dial, and a vernier pointer offers 4 to 1 resolution for indicating even small pressure changes. The system consists of a 6-inch Pressure Gauge, a Gauge Protector, and a high-pressure Hose.

- Available in box-mount and panel-mount configurations
- Standard 50-foot hose, with other hose lengths available
- Gauge can be mounted in any convenient location — perfect for use on service trucks.
- Vernier pointer provides 4 times more resolution for the same pressure change — measuring small pressure changes caused by formation breakdown, perforation plugs, and fractures.
- Fluid-filled gauge protects readings from truck or rig vibration.
- Operator-adjustable controls enable steady pointer movement.
- Provides all the advantages of the standard pump pressure gauge, with the added accuracy of the vernier pointer.
- Measurements can be easily recorded by hydraulic circular recorders or electronic remote strip recorders.
