Pressure Measuring Instruments

You can integrate all ni pressure measurement systems with other measurements and sensor types because of the modular design.

Pressure measuring instruments.

And the devices are. A pressure measuring instrument is an instrument which measures the pressure in gases an liquids. There are 4 main types of pressure measurement. Micro manometer u tube with enlarged ends.

Digital pressure transmitter for gauge and differential pressure with an increased measuring accuracy of 0 04. Manual sphygmomanometers are used with a stethoscope when using the auscultatory technique. Pressure measurement devices such as inclined manometer bourdon gauge diaphragm gauge bellows pressure transducers and electronic pressure sensors are used to measure extreme pressures with high accuracy. Electronic assemblies or components are integrated into a mechanical pressure measuring instruments the measured pressure is displayed locally however in addition the pressure measuring instrument offers an electrical signal or includes an electrical switching function.

For pressure measurement in hydraulics analysis in civil engineering the knowledge of construction and working of these devices is a must. National instruments offers a wide variety of pressure measurement solutions ranging from simple secure wi fi devices to high channel rack mountable systems. The indication of the pressure is made by a pointer on a dial with a standardised scale range over 270 angular degrees. Absolute the reference is a vacuum 0bar or no pressure.

A sphygmomanometer also known as a blood pressure monitor or blood pressure gauge is a device used to measure blood pressure composed of an inflatable cuff to collapse and then release the artery under the cuff in a controlled manner and a mercury or aneroid manometer to measure the pressure. The barometer is a device meant for measuring the local atmospheric pressure. Differential where the sensor has two ports for the measurement of two. Sitrans p ds iii the tried and tested sitrans p ds iii portfolio offers the right solution for every measurement task.

Mechatronic pressure measuring instrument. Gauge reference to atmospheric pressure. Types of pressure measurement with pressure application examples. The barometer 2 piezometer or pressure tube 3.

The bourdon gauge 5. Pressure measurement is the analysis of an applied force by a fluid liquid or gas on a surface. The diaphragm pressure gauge 6. Pressure is typically measured in units of force per unit of surface area many techniques have been developed for the measurement of pressure and vacuum instruments used to measure and display pressure in an integral unit are called pressure meters or pressure gauges or vacuum gauges.

Sealed referenced to a sealed chamber closed with atmospheric pressure approximately 1bar. Within pressure measuring instruments there are thousands and thousands of options and varieties on the method and connection of pressure measuring many industries facing the challenge of excellent and reliable pressure measurements.
