3.3 COUPLINGS

The 1.5” SHO-GAUGE is offered with standard 1.5” NH threaded connections. The 2.5” SHO-GAUGE is offered with standard hose

threaded connections: 2.5” NH, 2.5” BSP, or 2.5” NPSH. Inlets are swivel female threaded couplings with a hose gasket seal. Do not use

thread sealant. Outlet options are rigid or pivoting male threads. Maximum torque 20 ft-lb (27 Nm).

3.4 USE WITH SALT WATER

Use with salt water is permissible provided the equipment is thoroughly cleaned with fresh water after each use. The service life of the

equipment may be shortened due to the effects of corrosion, and is not covered under warranty. 

4.0 INSTALLATION

Published accuracy is assured when the device is installed in conditions with minimal turbulence; between two lengths of hose with the

same size couplings as the pressure gauge. Avoid locations where the pressure gauge or adjacent hose can be used as a step.

5.0 OPERATION

5.1 BATTERY TAB REMOVAL

Before  the  first  use  of  this  product,  the  protective  tab  over  the  battery

connection  must  be  removed.  Follow  the  instructions  in  Section  7.1

CHANGING  THE  BATTERY  to  access  the  battery  compartment,  then

remove the tab.

5.2 APP INSTALLATION

A smartphone app is required to view the pressure of the SHO-GAUGE.

Please download the app from either the Google Play Store or the Apple

App Store before proceeding. Search SHO-GAUGE in either store.

1. If the app is not already open, find and press the SHO-GAUGE app

icon from your list of apps, which will launch the app. (The TFT logo

is displayed while opening and the app will bring you to the main

Pressure Display screen.)

2. Allow app to use location if prompted. (This is required for use.)

3. If  a  Bluetooth  connection  has  not  already  been  set  up,  refer  to

section 5.5.

4. Once a connection is established, the pressure will be displayed on

the Pressure Display screen. 

5.3 PRESSURE DISPLAY

The  Pressure  Display  screen  is  used  to  notify  the  user  of  the  current

pressure in the system in real time when a SHO-GAUGE is connected.

Whenever the app is opened, this screen will open as default.

CAUTION

Mismatched or damaged waterway connections may cause equipment to leak or uncouple under 

pressure. Failure could result in injury. Equipment must be mated to matched connections. 

CAUTION

Dissimilar metals coupled together can cause galvanic corrosion that can result in the inability to 

uncouple the connection, or complete loss of engagement over time. Failure could cause injury. Per 

NFPA 1962, if dissimilar metals are left coupled together, an anti-corrosive lubricant should be 

applied to the connection and the coupling should be disconnected and inspected at least 

quarterly. 

NOTICE

Turbulence can cause inaccurate readings. Installing the device adjacent to turbulence causing 

plumbing like elbows, partially gated valves, eductors, and flat adapters is not recommended. The 

best accuracy is assured when the device is paired between two sections of straight hose. 

NOTICE

Wireless range can be greatly affected by installation orientation. 

It is recommended to install the SHO-GAUGE with the plastic cap facing up. 

For optimal range, install the SHO-GAUGE in a location that is raised off the ground.
