Nuova Fima

Nuova Fima is an Italian manufacturer of industrial measuring instruments with over 60 years of experience producing pressure gauges, thermometers, pressure transmitters, level gauges, and process meters for the most demanding industrial applications. With manufacturing facilities in Casorezzo (Milan, Italy) and distribution in more than 80 countries, Nuova Fima delivers accurate, reliable measuring instruments complying with international standards EN 837-1, ASME B40.100, and PED 2014/68/EU.

The Nuova Fima range includes Bourdon tube pressure gauges in stainless steel and cast iron (Ø40mm to Ø250mm, pressure ranges from vacuum to 1,600 bar), safety gauges for hazardous media (steam, gas, chemicals), liquid-filled gauges for vibration damping, diaphragm gauges for viscous or aggressive media, bimetallic thermometers, gas-filled thermometers, digital pressure transmitters, and combination pressure instruments.

Nuova Fima distinguishes itself through its extensive customization options: every pressure gauge can be configured with the desired connection size (G1/8 to G1, NPT, BSP), material (SS 316, Monel, Hastelloy), dial scale (bar, PSI, kPa, MPa), scale length, and process connection. This makes Nuova Fima particularly suitable for OEM applications and critical industrial environments.

The Nuova Fima diaphragm gauge series, equipped with PTFE, Inconel, or Hastelloy diaphragms, is essential for measurement of aggressive, viscous, or solidifying media in the chemical and pharmaceutical industries. The gauge is hermetically separated from the process medium.

At Verkopershulp.nl we carry over 2,079 genuine Nuova Fima instruments. As an authorized distributor we guarantee fast delivery, technical support for product selection, and full warranty on all Nuova Fima products.

History

Nuova Fima was founded in the 1960s in the Milan region of Italy. The company started as a specialist in mechanical pressure gauges for the Italian petrochemical and chemical industry. In the 1970s Nuova Fima expanded its range to thermometers, level gauges, and special measuring instruments for high pressures and aggressive media. In the 1980s and 1990s Nuova Fima grew internationally with the opening of sales offices in Europe and the Middle East. The company invested in advanced manufacturing technology for precision gauges and expanded its product portfolio with electronic pressure transmitters and digital pressure indicators. Today Nuova Fima is a recognized brand in the industrial instrumentation market, with a strong presence in the oil and gas sector, the chemical industry, and the energy sector. The company distributes its products worldwide and is investing in new sensor technologies and digital communication interfaces for smart process monitoring.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I select the correct Nuova Fima pressure gauge for my application?
Select a gauge based on: the pressure range to measure (choose a scale where the working point is approximately 60-75% of maximum scale value), the medium (water, gas, oil, steam, chemicals), temperature, required accuracy class (class 1, 1.6, or 2.5 per EN 837-1), connection size, and case material. For vibration-prone environments choose a liquid-filled gauge.
When should I use a liquid-filled Nuova Fima pressure gauge?
Liquid-filled gauges (glycerine or silicone oil filled) are used with: vibrations and shocks (machine building, compressors), pulsating pressure (pumps, compressors), frequent pressure fluctuations, and environments with moisture or condensation that can attack the Bourdon tube. The filling dampens needle movement and protects the internal mechanism.
What is a Nuova Fima diaphragm gauge and when do I use one?
A diaphragm gauge has a flexible membrane separating the Bourdon tube from the process medium. Use a diaphragm gauge for: viscous, pasty, or solidifying media (pastes, pulp, slurries), corrosive chemicals that attack the Bourdon tube, hygienic applications (food), and media at low pressure (vacuum, low overpressure) requiring high sensitivity.
Are Nuova Fima pressure gauges certified for use in ATEX zones?
Yes, Nuova Fima supplies mechanical gauges and thermometers in ATEX-certified versions for use in zones 1 and 2 (gas) and zones 21 and 22 (dust). These instruments are made of non-sparking materials and certified in compliance with ATEX directive 2014/34/EU. Nuova Fima electrical pressure transmitters are also available in ATEX version for hazardous zones.
What is the maximum working pressure of Nuova Fima gauges?
Nuova Fima offers gauges for working pressures up to 1,600 bar for extreme high-pressure applications such as hydraulic tools, injection moulding, and high-pressure water jet systems. Standard gauges are available up to 400 bar; special high-pressure models are certified for 600, 1,000, and 1,600 bar. Always specify the exact working pressure in your inquiry.
How do I maintain Nuova Fima measuring instruments?
Mechanical gauges require no regular active maintenance but should be periodically calibrated (annually for critical process measurements) and inspected for leakage and damage. Replace a gauge immediately if cracks appear, condensation forms under the glass, or the needle is damaged. Liquid-filled gauges can be refilled or replaced when fluid is lost.
Are Nuova Fima instruments available with Hastelloy connections?
Yes, Nuova Fima supplies gauges and diaphragm instruments with Hastelloy C-276, Inconel 625, and Monel 400 connections and diaphragms for use with highly corrosive media (hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, chlorine gas). Contact our specialists at Verkopershulp.nl for custom configurations with special materials and anti-corrosion coatings.
Does Verkopershulp.nl supply Nuova Fima pressure transmitters with 4-20 mA output?
Yes, we supply Nuova Fima digital pressure transmitters with 4-20 mA and 0-10V analog output signals for direct connection to PLC and SCADA systems. The transmitters are available in pressure ranges from 0-25 mbar to 0-1,000 bar and in ATEX-certified versions for hazardous zones. HART protocol communication is available as an option.
