There are ports for test cocks on the BFPs, and a nipple/tee/gauge could be placed there without affecting the performance of the valve or interfering with the test ports, but its a pretty unusual request, I'd think- but only because I've never had to do it.

We have one on our slick riser, but is one required on the supply side? Sounds like a good idea. But don´t most BFP´s have mounts for installing and removing gauges? The BFP is our system check valve.
