Model 116
Bellows Type
Tank Level Gauge
Mid-West® Instrument Model 116 Tank Level ΔP Gauge – ± 1% Full Scale Accuracy. System pressure is applied to the internal volume of a bellows and mechanical linkage assembly. As pressure changes, the bellows and linkage assembly is mechanically coupled to the gauge indicator pointer. If equipped with a micro-switch, a cam mechanically linked to the bellows, rotates and triggers the micro-switch. The major components of the Model 116 are a two-piece body, bellows sensing element and over-pressure assembly, a torque tube assembly, a range spring and the gauge front assembly.
This assembly incorporates a bi-directional over-pressure relief valve (OPV) which provides protection in both directions. When the Differential Pressure exceeds 130% of the range the OPV equalizes the pressure between the Hi and Lo sides. ¼” FNPT Dual top and bottom connections are provided as standard. Model 116 Tank Level gauge is also equipped with a Micro adjust pointer. If necessary, the pointer can be re-zeroed. Body is made of brass with 316 Stainless Steel internals. Viton Seals are provided as standard. The Dial is 6” diameter with white lettering on a black dial. (White dial with black lettering optional) The 116 temperature limits are rated at -40°C to 200°F. Proof pressure is Two Times working pressure at ambient temperature.

Micro-Switch Specifications:
See Installation and Operation Manual : IM116DPIS 6” DIAL ONLY
Model 116 can be equipped with one or two independently adjustable SPDT switches which can be set on decreasing or on increasing pressure.
Minimum range requirement for Micro-switch is 80” H2O. The model 116 switch adjust screw and a switch lock screw is accessible after removal of the lens and bezel (removal of 4 screws). Interface to the snap acting micro-switch is via color coded 18 AWG flying leads and a ½” FNPT conduit connection. The assembly does not need power to operate.
