Record number: 3, Textual support number: 1 CONT
Aneroid barometer: An instrument for measuring atmospheric pressure. It is constructed on the following principles: an aneroid capsule (Vidie capsule, which is a thin, disk-shaped box or capsule, usually metallic) is partially evacuated of gas, and is restrained from collapsing by an external or internal spring. The deflection of the spring will be nearly proportional to the difference between the internal and external pressures. Magnification of the spring deflection is obtained both by connecting capsules in series and by mechanical linkages. 5, record 3, English, - aneroid%20capsule
