Pressure Measurement FAQs

Pressure measurement is the process of quantifying the force exerted by a fluid or gas on a surface, providing valuable information for monitoring, controlling, and optimizing various industrial, scientific, and engineering processes.

The types of pressure commonly encountered are absolute pressure, gauge pressure, differential pressure and vacuum pressure.

Pressure is measured by using instruments such as pressure gauges, transducers, sensors, or manometers that detect the force exerted by a fluid or gas on a surface and convert it into a measurable quantity.

A pressure gauge is a device used to measure and display the pressure of a fluid or gas in a system, providing a visual indication of the pressure reading.

The most efficient pressure measuring gauge is the high-precision digital pressure gauge.
