You are bidding on a SUPERB and 100% original WW2 German Luftwaffe Sauerstoffanzeiger (Oxygen Gauge), Fl. 10-6901 A-1, as ONLY used on the He-162 and Me262 Turbo Jet Aircraft!
This instrument was part of the fighter oxygen system, and measured both the Oxygen Flow and Pressure from the main tank. This reduced the use of 2 sperate instruments, and saved on space and production time. Unlike most German gauges being produced very late in the war, this was a simple stamped steel casing. Though designed specifically for use in the He162, a few very late variants of the Me262 were known to have used this type.
Made of aluminum and steel, this instrument is in AMAZING used condition and dates between 1944 and 1945! 98% of the original finish remains, and the RARE data label is 95% intact! Some slight marks, wear, and corrosion on the steel casing, but this can easily be cleaned up. Brought back by a US veteran, I have shown it’s position in the He162 and Me262 cockpit in the last photos. A VERY RARE item it is a PERFECT addition for any collector, display, or restoration project!
Please email me if you need additional photos or information.

——————- ABOUT ME —————–
Although my passion is the Me109, I do offer many other German Aircraft (Fw190, Me262, etc.), as well as USAF and Japanese items. Occasionally I do offer many non-vintage items such as prints and art relating to the time period. As a private collector myself, I am constantly on the lookout for historical memorabilia, authentic photographs, artwork or anything unique relating to military aircraft.
