3D Test pressure gauge series gives you a choice of two different degrees of accuracy to match your application. All 3D test pressure gauge accuracy figures are real: they include all friction, error, hysteresis, and linearity variations. ... Every dial is clearly marked for fast, accurate reading with calibrations covering a 270° arc. Parallax is corrected on the test pressure gauge by a neutral glare-free face and a corrosion resistant stainless steel dial, incorporating a polished mirror band.

OBS

pressure gage: An instrument for measuring fluid pressure. A pressure gauge usually registers the difference between atmospheric pressure and the pressure of the fluid being measured by indicating the effect of such pressures on a measuring element (as a column of liquid, a bourdon tube, a diaphragm, or other pressure-sensitive device).

OBS

test gauge: this term should be used in non ambiguous contexts only.
