    Default Best Filter Press Gauge

    Does anyone have experience replacing filter press gauges with a gauge that will actually last? The dry gauges rattle with air diaphragm pumps until they are useless. Especially when you run the pump to clear lines and it really hammers.

    We run D&G 15" press and love them. But we do not love the gauges and replacing the gauges often. Any suggestions?

    Gylcerin-filled (also called "vibration resistant") gauges work well for those applications.
