Description
You are bidding on a VERY NICE and 100% original WW2 German Luftwaffe Aircraft 0-250 kg/cm2 Sauerstoffdruckmesser (Oxygen Pressure Gauge), Fl. 30496! This was used on many German aircraft including the Me109, Fw190, Me110, Ju88, He111, Ju87, He219, Hs129, 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 GOOD used condition. It dates between 1944 and 1945, and 85% of the original paint and finish remains! The data label is intact, and clearly indicates Fl. 30496. Some marks due to the age, and one screw missing from the reverse, but otherwise complete. I have shown its position in the Me109 and Fw190 cockpits in the last images. A PERFECT addition to any collection, display, or restoration project!
