Can the Pressure gauge shut-off valve with female thread, nickel-plated brass, type FPEA be panel-mounted using the threaded knob and adapter DC-FPE-FPEA (adapter ordered separately)?

Yes. The Pressure gauge shut-off valve with female thread, nickel-plated brass, type FPEA can be panel-mounted using the threaded knob, but only when the adapter DC-FPE-FPEA is fitted (adapter ordered separately). The valve has a thread under the knob specifically to allow panel mounting; the adapter must be tightened to the valveâs internal threaded connection to secure it in the panel. Ensure you use the correct DC-FPE-FPEA adapter and tighten it properly for safe, leak-free mounting.

Is the Pressure gauge shut-off valve with female thread, nickel-plated brass, type FPEA suitable for use with aggressive hydraulic fluids?

Pressure gauge shut-off valve with female thread, nickel-plated brass, type FPEA is not recommended for use with aggressive hydraulic fluids. Its body is nickel-plated brass, needle is carbon steel, connection nut is galvanized steel, knob is plastic, and sealing is NBR - materials that may corrode, swell or degrade when exposed to aggressive or chemically active fluids. Operating temperature range is -20Â°C to +100Â°C, but chemical compatibility is limited by NBR and metal choices. For aggressive fluids, choose valves and seals specified for chemical resistance (e.g., stainless steel and FKM/PFA/EPDM as appropriate) and confirm compatibility with the fluid supplier.
