Un pressostat est un dispositif détectant le dépassement d'une valeur prédéterminée, de la pression d'un fluide. L'information rendue peut être électrique, pneumatique, hydraulique, ou mécanique. Ces appareils sont également appelés manostats ou encore manocontacts en transformant une ou plusieurs valeurs de pression déterminées qu'ils subissent en informations électriques ou mécaniques. Ils sont utilisés dans de nombreuses applications de systèmes de contrôle ou de régulation par exemple en provoquant l'arrêt d'un compresseur si la pression d'évaporation descend au-dessous d'une limite déterminée. 5, record 1, French, - manostat
