Features

The Redtail II builds off of 30+ years of product excellence and includes new features, including higher pressure operations up to 1 bar [14.5 psi], external mounting lugs for additional support bracketing, and improved field serviceability.

Compartmentalized

  • The Redtail II seperates the tank-exposed components from the atmospheric components ensuring emission-free operation.
  • An integral sloped channel allows condensation to drain freely into the tank.
  • Compartments are connected by the bearing-supported axle, and sealed by the unique Dual Dry Seal. Stainless Steel bearings optionally available.

Dual Dry Seal

  • The Dual dynamic FKM (Viton) axle seals prevent emission from the tank escaping from the gauge head. PTFE (Teflon) optionally available.
  • Dry-Seal technology requires no addition of grease or other sealing agents for long-term reliable operation.

Large Diameter, Indexed Cable Reels

  • Large diameter reels provide low operating friction.
  • Reels are connected mechanically via a keyed common axle to provide acurate cable motion with none of the slip associated with pulley systems.

Mounting/Support Lug

  • An integrated mounting/support lug cast directly into the body of the Redtail addresses customer feedback by providing a solution to mitigate the cantilever moment applied to the 2” nozzle during use.

Cast Boss

  • A reinforced boss is cast into the body at the 12 o’clock position, providing additional wall thickness to allow drilling and tapping for a ¼” NPT port.
