Description
Overview:
The Durite 12 Volt Illuminated Oil Pressure Gauge is a compact 52 mm electric gauge designed to monitor engine oil pressure clearly and reliably on 12 V vehicles and machinery. It features a matt black bezel with crisp white figures and an illuminated face for day and night legibility. Supplied with an electrical sender, it avoids the need to run oil lines to the cab, helping keep installations tidy and safer. The round body fits a standard 52 mm (2.05 inches) panel cut-out, making it suitable for dashboards and control panels in cars, vans, light plant, compact tractors, ride-on mowers, generators, and similar 12 V equipment. A 90-degree needle sweep provides at-a-glance readings so you can protect the engine and maintain performance.
Key Features:
- 12 V operation for automotive and light machinery electrical systems
- 52 mm (2.05 inches) panel cut-out for easy, standard-sized mounting
- Supplied with a 1/8 inch NPTF sender (approx 10.3 mm OD, 27 tpi) for straightforward fitment to common engine ports or adaptors
- 90-degree sweep for stable, easy-to-read indication across the working range
- Illuminated dial for clear visibility in low light and night use
- Matt black bezel with high-contrast white figures for quick reading at a glance
- Electric gauge design keeps oil in the engine bay, reducing mess and complexity versus mechanical capillary setups
- Suits dashboards and control panels with limited space thanks to the compact round form factor
- Compatible with a wide variety of petrol and diesel engines that use an electrical pressure sender
Typical Applications:
Real-time oil pressure monitoring on 12 V vehicles and equipment, including cars, 4x4s, light commercials, compact tractors, ride-on and garden machinery, small boats with 12 V systems, generators, compressors, and pumps. Useful for retrofit builds, restorations, and replacements where a reliable, illuminated gauge is required to help prevent engine damage and support routine checks during operation.
