Description
The Kodiak Controls BW42-KC is a 1/4″ brass pressure snubber engineered to protect pressure gauges and instrumentation from damaging pressure spikes, surges, and pulsations common in HVAC, hydronic, and mechanical systems. By restricting rapid pressure fluctuations before they reach the gauge, the BW42 extends gauge service life and ensures accurate, stable readings over time.
Key Features
- 1/4″ connection size for easy integration with standard pressure gauge ports
- Brass construction for excellent corrosion resistance and long-term durability
- Dampens pressure pulsations and spikes to protect connected instrumentation
- Compact, inline design for straightforward installation in tight spaces
- Compatible with a wide range of HVAC, hydronic, steam, and plumbing applications
- Part number 06-310 for easy cross-reference and ordering
Applications
- Boiler and hydronic heating systems
- Steam and hot water distribution systems
- Compressed air and pneumatic control lines
- Refrigeration and chilled water systems
- General HVAC pressure gauge protection
Why Use a Pressure Snubber?
Pressure gauges exposed to rapid pressure fluctuations — such as those found near pumps, compressors, and steam systems — are prone to premature failure. The Kodiak Controls BW42-KC snubber acts as a buffer, absorbing pressure transients before they reach the gauge internals. The result is a longer-lasting gauge, more stable readings, and reduced maintenance costs over the life of the system.
