Ideal Pressure Gauge 176880

The Ideal 176880 is a pressure gauge used on Ideal Vogue boilers. It sits on the appliance's water circuit and gives a direct visual reading of system pressure, so the boiler's operating condition can be checked at a glance during servicing or fault finding. It is supplied as an Ideal Spares component and is listed against the Vogue C and Vogue S ranges.

• The needle sits at zero or off-scale while the system is known to be pressurised.
• The reading drifts, sticks or jumps instead of moving smoothly as pressure changes.
• The gauge reads noticeably differently from a second gauge or a filling loop pressure reading.
• Condensation, discolouration or fluid is visible behind the lens.
• Water weeps from the gauge body or its connection point.

• Check the appliance GC number against the compatibility list, as the same part number is listed across several Vogue variants.
• Confirm the number on the existing gauge or the appliance data badge before ordering.
• Note the alternative part number 1782599, which may appear on older documentation or stock records.
• Have the boiler isolated and depressurised before removing the gauge, and check any sealing washer or O-ring at the connection for reuse.
