WHAT DOES PRESSURE GAUGE MEAN IN ENGLISH?

pressure gauge

Pressure measurement

Many techniques have been developed for the measurement of pressure and vacuum. Instruments used to measure pressure are called pressure gauges or vacuum gauges. A manometer is an instrument that uses a column of liquid to measure pressure, although the term is often used nowadays to mean any pressure measuring instrument. A vacuum gauge is used to measure the pressure in a vacuum—which is further divided into two subcategories, high and low vacuum. The applicable pressure range of many of the techniques used to measure vacuums have an overlap. Hence, by combining several different types of gauge, it is possible to measure system pressure continuously from 10 mbar down to 10−11 mbar.
