<p>[QUOTE="springfld.arsenal, post: 257160, member: 54"]Was probably on a stationary boiler in a building somewhere based on the thin supply pipe. Might work as a fancy compressed air gauge in our hoardatorium/machine shop. We'll be repairing a large compressor in near future, to supply the shop's other machines, and we could see this from anywhere in the shop. If u take the back off and the mechanism looks undamaged, might just need mechanical adjustment as simple as re-aligning a pinion and sector gear. Undoubtedly it reads in units of "psig"'or "pounds-per-square-inch-gauge."[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
