Review: Sehr gut - funktioniert sehr gut Review: A "Must Have" Tool for Pressure Washers - Setting the proper working pressure is key to setting up (or diagnosing) a pressure washer. I've found that the critical unloader valve is rarely set properly. Adjusting it ensures top performance and protects the pump. This gauge seems to work fine, though I didn't have a standard (calibration) gauge to compare it to. Movement is filled with mineral oil, and the damping worked fine in use. 5,000 PSI range is plenty for most portable pressure washers. Nice SS case, and good 3/8" quick disconnects I was able to diagnose a failing AR VMX 3G30D, and brought it back to life with new seals, valves, and unloader. The Valley Industries gauge then allowed unloader set up and performance check. I set the AR to ~2500 psi trigger pulled (3.5 orifice nozzle zero degrees ); 2850 psi trigger closed; with no pressure spike. This is about right for a 3000 psi pump. Make sure you use a new zero degree nozzle of correct orifice size when setting up yours, and don't allow trigger off pressure to exceed pump psi spec. Note that a good unloader is priceless (I used an AR 3 Gymatic) BTW, pressure is important, but its GPM that really makes a difference. Failing unloader or too high PSI setting will kill any pump in a hurry This gauge is a great tool - get one! ## Features - Easy to read and minimizes vibrations for accurate readings - Reads up to 5,000 psi - Designed to fit most pressure washer brands and models - Features 3/8" quick connect plug and couplers ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0000AX9TR | | Best Sellers Rank | #46,068 in Tools & Home Improvement ( See Top 100 in Tools & Home Improvement ) #5 in Pressure Washer Gauges | | Brand | NorthStar | | Brand Name | NorthStar | | Country Of Origin | China | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 1,052 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00816403001267 | | Included Components | Northstar Pressure Washer Pressure Gauge | | Item Dimensions | 5.7 x 11.4 x 17.1 centimeters | | Item Type Name | Pressure Washer Gauge - 5000 PSI, 3/8" Fittings | | Item Weight | 0.77 Pounds | | Item dimensions L x W x H | 5.7 x 11.4 x 17.1 centimeters | | Item weight | 0.77 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Valley Industries | | Material | Acrylic | | Material Type | Acrylic | | Model | PK-QCG-5000 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Part Number | 276470 | | UPC | 816403001267 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | | Unit count | 1 Count | | Warranty Description | 12 months parts / 12 months labor | ## Product Details - **Brand:** North Star Proven Performance - **Item dimensions L x W x H:** 5.7 x 11.4 x 17.1 centimeters - **Item weight:** 349 g - **Material:** Acrylic - **UPC:** 816403001267 ## Images ![North Star Proven Performance Northstar Pressure Washer Pressure Gauge - 5000 PSI, 3/8in.
