AirComParts Compressed Air Temperature Gauge, 1/4 in. NPT, Rigid Stem, 220 F
Discharge temperature is the number that tells you a compressor is in trouble before anything else does. Valves leaking back, a fouled intercooler, low oil, a belt slipping on the fan: all of it shows up as heat first. This is the rigid stem gauge that goes in the port and gives you somewhere to look.

Where it goes
The common points are compressor discharge ahead of the aftercooler, aftercooler outlet, and the inlet of a refrigerated dryer. That last one matters most. Most refrigerated dryers are rated for an inlet around 100 F, and feeding one air at 150 F is the single most common reason a dryer that is sized correctly still passes water downstream.
Fitting it
Bleed the line to zero before you open anything. The stem needs to sit in the air stream, not in a dead pocket off the side of a tee, or it reads low. Use a sealant rated for compressed air at temperature and do not over tighten against the case.
