This Sandia 80-0059-3 gauge reads pump pressure up to 300 PSI on Sandia's 300psi-series Sniper carpet extractor pumps. It's the diagnostic split point techs rely on to tell a pump problem from a downstream clog -- if the gauge reads normal but spray is still weak, the issue is usually a clogged nozzle or line, not the pump itself.
Built for
- Verifying the pump holds its rated 300 PSI before starting a job
- Diagnosing weak spray -- a low gauge reading points to the pump, a normal reading points downstream
- Working technicians and small operators who already own a Sniper 300psi-series extractor
Specifications
- Rated for 300 PSI systems
- Fits Sandia Sniper 300psi-series pumps
- OEM direct-fit replacement gauge
Frequently asked questions
How do I know if this fits my machine?
This gauge is built for Sandia's 300psi-series Sniper pump systems. Confirm your machine's pump rating before ordering if you're unsure which gauge version you need.
Is this the 300psi or 500psi version -- how do I tell mine apart?
Sandia's 80-0059 gauge family includes multiple PSI ratings. This is the 300psi version (80-0059-3); check your machine's pump documentation or the gauge's dial markings to confirm which one you currently have installed.
Is this a DIY swap, or does it need a technician?
Gauge replacement on Sniper pump systems is typically a straightforward swap that most working technicians handle themselves.
The gauge reads normal pressure but spray is still weak -- why?
A normal gauge reading with weak spray usually points to a clogged nozzle or line downstream of the pump, not a pump failure -- check filters and nozzles before assuming the pump is bad.
What does it mean if the pump keeps losing pressure or prime?
Losing prime often happens when an air bubble gets pulled into the pump. Pushing or working the air bubble out of the pump typically restores normal pressure.
