    The air gauge unit uses differential back pressure sensing to measure the size, taper, and ovality of workpieces in a non-contact manner. It provides accurate readings within +/- 2% of the full scale dimension with a response time of 1.2 seconds. The system requires a regulated air pressure of 3.5 kg/cm2 supplied by an air compressor operating between 4-10 kg/cm2. Filters are used to provide clean and dry air to the gauge unit for accurate measurements.

    Operating Working Principle:

    ● Air gauging relies on the laws of physics which state that flow and pressure are propor onate to
    clearance and are inversly proportional to each other.

    ●First Air gauge Unit with filter set a ache the Air Compressor.

    ● Required Air Compressor Pressure 4-10 kg/cm² pressure .

    ● On the Filter Cock then in Air Gauge Unit a high pressure regulator built into the unit.
    i.e.3.5 kg/cm²(45 psi)

    ● Air Gauge Unit Required Operating Pressure 3.5 kg/cm² pressure gauge.

    ● The regulated air flows the restriction-needle valve, orifice and then through the nozzele when the
    nozzle is open to the atmosphere there is maximum flow through it and there is a minimum of pressure
    called 'back-pressure' between the restriction and nozzle.

    ● As an obstruction is brought increasingly close to the front of nozzle, air flow from the nozzle
    diminishes and back -pressure builds

    Page 1/2
    ● When the nozzle is comletely obstructed, air flow is zero,and back pressure reaches the pressure of
    the regulated air supply. In this example , air flow maximum to minimum, while back pressure moved in
    opposite direction i.e .minimum to maximum.

    ● These values each can be plotted against the nozzle's clearance from obstruction.Except for the
    extremes of both back-pressure and flow, the curves are straight line, representing linear proportions
    Which establishesh the basis of all air gauging.

    ● Thus measured decreases in flow provide an accurate co-relation of the distance of the nozzles in
    the air gauge tool to the obstruction (surface of the work piece being measured).Similarly, increases
    in back pressure indicates less distance between the tooling nozzle and workpiece.

    ● Adjust the dial and Direct setting with magnification correction .

    ● Repeatability of measurment and stability of the set point within +/-1 Division.

    Warnings & Instruction:

    ● Keep the Air Gauge Unit at Clean, dry place.

    ● Keep enough space in front and at the back of the air gauge unit.

    ● Do not keep any other object on the instrument.

    ● Open the cover when air gauge se ng purpose oniy.

    ● if any service is needed, the air gauge unit should be returned to the manufacturer only.

    Filter Sets:

    ● The Filter unit, combination of 1 and 5 micron filter elements, provided clean and constant air supply
    which is the life blood of air gauging. Sintered bronze filtering elements filter dust particles and the swirl
    action given to incoming air seperater the water from the compressed air. Model OFI oil removal filter
    works in two stages to process the contaminants and provided oil-free dry air.

    ● "Press to Lock "adjus ng Knob enables easy locking at any pressure.
