Victor 2-Inch Acetylene Cylinder Gauge 400 PSI Gold Face

Genuine Victor Replacement Gauge: 0-400 PSI

The Victor 1424-0283 is a premium replacement pressure gauge designed for professional welding and cutting equipment. As a critical component of your gas regulation system, this gauge provides accurate readings of cylinder pressure, ensuring that welders can monitor their gas supply effectively. Specifically calibrated with a 0-400 PSI range, this gauge is the standard specification for the high-pressure (inlet) side of Acetylene regulators.

Technical Specifications and Fitment

This gauge features a 2-inch (50mm) dial diameter, which is the industry standard for most medium-to-heavy-duty industrial regulators. The scale is marked in PSI (pounds per square inch), allowing for precise tracking of remaining gas contents. The "Gold Tint" face is a hallmark of Victor's quality line, offering superior legibility compared to standard white-faced gauges. The internal mechanism is housed in a durable brass case, providing resistance to vibration and mechanical shock common in welding environments.

Safety and Maintenance

Operating a regulator with a compromised gauge is a safety hazard. A cracked lens, bent needle, or stuck movement can lead to misreading gas levels, potentially causing dangerous situations or process interruptions. The Victor 1424-0283 is designed to meet strict industry standards for pressure equipment. It includes a blowout back or safety construction typical of high-quality compressed gas gauges to protect the operator in the unlikely event of internal failure.

Ideal for Acetylene Service

While 400 PSI gauges can be used in various low-pressure applications, this specific model is tailored for Acetylene service on the cylinder side. Acetylene cylinders are filled to approximately 250 PSI at 70°F. A 400 PSI gauge places the "Full" reading past the middle of the scale, offering optimal resolution for tracking gas usage. It is compatible with Victor Edge series, SR 450, SR 460, and other professional-grade regulators requiring a 2-inch bottom-mount gauge.
