Product Information

Full details

The Viair Dual Needle Gauge (90083) is designed for vehicle owners who require precise air pressure monitoring, especially those with complex air suspension or air systems. Its key benefit is the ability to monitor two separate pressures simultaneously with a clear, illuminated display, ensuring optimal performance and safety. A potential caveat is the need for a separate 1/8 in. NPT Female Compression Fitting for installation. This 2-inch white face gauge offers reliable readings up to 160 PSI and is built for rigorous daily use in various conditions, enhancing both functionality and dashboard aesthetics.

FAQs

Do I need to buy anything else to install this gauge?

Yes, you will need a 1/8 in. NPT Female Compression Fitting (P/N 92838) for installation, as it is not included with the gauge.

What is the maximum pressure this gauge can read?

The gauge has a maximum reading capacity of 160 PSI.

Can I use this gauge for tire pressure monitoring?

While it can monitor air pressure, it is primarily designed for vehicle air systems like air suspension, not direct tire pressure gauging which typically requires a different type of gauge.

How is the illumination powered?

The illumination requires a connection to your vehicle's 12V electrical system. This may require custom wiring.

What does the dual needle allow me to monitor?

The dual needle allows you to monitor two separate air pressure sources simultaneously, ideal for systems with multiple air tanks or independent air suspension components.

What is the size of the gauge face?

The gauge face is 2 inches in diameter.

Is this gauge suitable for harsh environments?

Yes, it is designed for rigorous use and to withstand a variety of environmental conditions.

Troubleshooting

Gauge not reading pressure

Verify that the air line is securely connected to the gauge and the air system is pressurized. Check for any leaks at the connection point.

Illumination not working

Ensure the illumination wire is properly connected to a suitable 12V power source and ground. Check the fuse if applicable.

Inaccurate readings

Confirm the gauge is within its operational range (0-160 PSI). Ensure there are no leaks in the air line or at the connection.

Needle is stuck or not moving

Check for obstructions in the air line or at the gauge port. Ensure the gauge itself is not damaged.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Simultaneous monitoring of two pressure sources.
  • Clear, illuminated display for easy reading at any time.
  • Robust build quality for demanding applications.
  • Wide 0-160 PSI range covers most vehicle air system requirements.
  • Enhances vehicle performance and safety through accurate monitoring.

Cons

  • Requires a separate purchase of a 1/8 in. NPT Female Compression Fitting (P/N 92838).
  • Installation may require some technical knowledge or professional help.
  • Limited to air pressure monitoring; does not include other gauge functions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Installation requires connecting the gauge to your air system. You will need a 1/8 in. NPT Female Compression Fitting (sold separately, P/N 92838) to connect your air lines to the gauge. Ensure all connections are secure to prevent leaks. Power for the illumination will need to be wired according to your vehicle's electrical system.

Compatibility: This gauge is designed for use with vehicle air systems. It is compatible with most 12V electrical systems for illumination. Ensure your air system pressure does not exceed the 160 PSI maximum.

Care: Clean the gauge face with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the display or housing. Periodically check all air line connections for any signs of leakage.
