Pressure measurement: 8 things to know
1. Pressure is the force applied to an area. There are many different systems of pressure measurement. Absolute pressure and sealed gauge pressure are two of the most common. There are many differences between these two measurements of pressure that have significant effects on their use and measurement. Depending on why you are measuring pressure, […]
Compound Pressure Transducers
Different terms are used in the compressor industry when referring to pressure transducers that measure from negative to positive gauge pressure. Measuring both suction and discharge, a compound pressure transducer provides a linear output signal from full vacuum through zero pressure up to the full scale pressure.A pressure transducer with a pressure range of -14.7 […]
