Description
You are bidding on a VERY NICE and 100% original WW2 German Luftwaffe 0-250 kg/cm2 Sauerstoffdruckmesser (Oxygen Pressure Gauge), Fl. 30496, as used on many German aircraft including the Me109, Fw190, Me110, Ju88, He111, Ju87, He219, Hs129, Ho229 and other fighters and destroyers!
This instrument was part of the fighter/bomber oxygen system, and measured the pressure flowing from the Oxygen Regulator to the pilot’s oxygen mask. This was usually located on the starboard console of most aircraft including the Me109, Fw190, Me262, Do355, Ta152, Go229, Ju87, He72 He219, Ju88, and Me163.
Made of aluminum and steel, this instrument is in EXCELLENT New Old Stock condition! It dates between 1944 and 1945, and retains almost all of its original paint and finish! The data label is intact, and clearly indicates Fl. 30496. Some marks from storage, but nothing that detracts. I have shown it’s position in the Me109 and Fw190 cockpits. A PERFECT addition to any collection, display, or restoration project!
