  • Measuring Instruments
  • Water Treatment (Water Supply)
DEF

A pressure-measuring device actuated by two or more pressure-sensitive elements that act in opposition to produce an indication of the difference between two pressure sources.

CONT

... a differential pressure gauge designed for the direct measurement of the increase of head loss across the filters.

Key term(s)
  • differential pressure gage

Record 3 1987-05-01

English

Subject field(s)
  • Scientific Instruments
  • Aerodynamics and Theory of Gases
  • Measuring Instruments
DEF

a compact dial gauge of limited accuracy for measuring differential pressures. The active element is a twisted bourdon tube with a flat magnetic armature attached which rotates when pressure is applied, thus changing the air gap between it and the sensing circuit, changing the inductance. The resultant signal is used to modulate a carrier voltage.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Instruments scientifiques
  • Théorie des gaz et aérodynamique
  • Appareils de mesure
DEF

manomètre compact, à cadran à degré de précision limité, servant à mesurer les pressions différentielles. L'élément actif est un tube de Bourdon cintré dont une extrémité de section aplatie est fixée à une source de pression. Lorsque la pression est appliquée, l'extrémité libre tend à se rapprocher d'une section circulaire, ce qui réduit l'espace d'air entre l'extrémité et le circuit senseur, modifiant ainsi l'inductance; le signal résultant est utilisé pour modifier une tension porteuse.

  • Scientific Instruments
  • Fluid Mechanics and Hydraulics (Physics)
DEF

A pressure gage used to measure the difference in pressure between two points in a pipe or receptacle containing a liquid.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Instruments scientifiques
  • Mécanique des fluides et hydraulique (Physique)
DEF

Manomètre servant à mesurer la différence de pression entre deux points dans un écoulement sous pression.
