Product catalog summary
Overview: The AMETEK Model 656 series are liquid-filled, open front stainless steel gauges designed for corrosive environments in industries such as chemical, petrochemical, refining, power, marine, and food and pharmaceutical processing. These gauges are particularly effective in applications with excessive vibration and pulsation, providing extended service life and protection against corrosive atmospheres.
Specifications:
  • Sizes: Available in 2-1/2" (63mm), 4" (100mm), and 6" (160mm).
  • Pressure Ranges: 63mm models range from 30" Hg-0 psi to 0-10000 psi; 100mm and 160mm models range from 30" Hg-0 psi to 0-23000 psi.
  • Accuracy: 63mm models have an accuracy of ±1.6% of full scale; 100mm and 160mm models have an accuracy of ±1.0% of full scale.
  • Bourdon Tube: Made from seamless 316L stainless steel, with C type for lower pressures and helical type for higher pressures.
  • Window: 63mm models use polycarbonate, with an optional laminated shatter-resistant glass; 100mm and 160mm models use laminated shatter-resistant glass.
  • Movement and Dial: Movement is made from 304 stainless steel; dials are white aluminum with black lettering.
  • Case and Bezel Ring: Constructed from 304 stainless steel with a bayonet type design.
  • Process Connection: 316L stainless steel with various NPT standards depending on size.
  • Working Conditions: Ambient temperature range is -40°F to 140°F; fluid temperature range is -4°F to 176°F. Weather protection is rated at NEMA 4X/IP67.
Warnings and Recommendations: Users should be aware that fill fluids can react with strong oxidizing agents, potentially causing explosions. It is recommended to consult the factory for alternative fillings if used in hazardous environments. Familiarity with the ASME B40.100 standard for pressure gauges is advised.
Dimensions and Mounting Options: Detailed dimensions and mounting options are provided for each gauge size, including lower mount, center back mount, and lower back mount configurations.
Spec Number Selection: The document includes detailed spec number selection charts for each gauge size, outlining available pressure ranges and corresponding spec numbers.

Model 656 2-1/2" (63mm), 4" (100mm) and 6" (160mm) Open Front Stainless Steel Gauges-1

Product Data LIQUID FILLED GAUGES – OPEN FRONT STYLE Model 656 2-1/2" (63mm), 4" (100mm) and 6" (160mm) Open Front Stainless Steel Gauges DESCRIPTION The 656 Series are suitable for corrosive environments in chemical, petrochemical, refining, power, marine, and food and pharmaceutical processing applications. Liquid filled pressure gauges provide users with a number of advantages in certain measurement applications. They are ideally suited for uses on equipment where excessive vibration and pulsation are encountered, such as pumps, compressors, machine tools, etc. The liquid fill minimizes the effect of these severe environments, protects the gauge internals, and provides continuous lubrication on the mechanism, all adding up to extended service life. Liquid filling also provides greater protection of the gauge internals from corrosive atmospheres. All Model 656 gauges are made with seamless 316L SST Bourdon tubes, which reduces concerns about tube fatigue and stress corrosion cracking. AMETEK liquid filled gauges can be used with a variety of fill fluids including glycerin, mineral oil, and silicone oil. These gauges are available in 63mm (2-1/2"), 100mm (4"), and 160mm (6") sizes.

If gauges are to be used in such hazardous service, consult factory for other liquid filling and product alternatives. In order to correctly use these gauges, it is recommended that users of pressure gauges become familiar with American National Standard ASME B40.100 entitled “Pressure Gauges and Gauge Attachments.” This specification is available from the American Society of Mechanical Engineers, United Engineering Center, 345 East 47th Street, New York, NY 10017.
