Description
You are bidding on a NICE example of a WW2 German Luftwaffe 0-160 kg/cm2 Druckmesser (Pressure Gauge), Fl. 20516-3, as ONLY used in the Ar234, Do335, Go229, He162, Ju388, Me163, and Me262!
This gauge was produced around 1944 and measured the fuel pressure of the engines (BMW003, Jumo004, DB603), and relayed the information to the pilot. It was located on the side console or main instrument panel of the aircraft.
Made of aluminum and steel, this instrument is in GOOD used condition. 95% of the original finish remains, however there are some very slight marks and blemishes due to the age. Appears the “kg/cm2” marking was removed postwar. Data label/stamp that is normally on the reverse has faded. I have indicated its location in the last photos. A VERY NICE and 100% original item for any collection, restoration project, or panel re-build!
