Fundamentals of Pressure Measurement
Product Code : JA-FMAHLE-9977
The Fundamentals of Pressure Measurement unit (SKU JA-FMAHLE-9977) compares three ways of measuring small positive and negative pressures: a U-tube manometer, an inclined tube manometer and Bourdon tube gauges. A plastic syringe generates the test pressures in the millibar range, and a calibration device is included. JaincoLab supplies this pressure measurement trainer to engineering colleges and polytechnics for fluid mechanics and instrumentation practicals.
Specifications
The U-tube manometer and the inclined tube manometer (set at 30°) each read 0 to 500 mm water column, and the two Bourdon tube gauges read 0 to 60 mbar and -60 to 0 mbar, with a plastic syringe to generate pressures and a calibration device supplied.

Applications of the pressure measurement trainer
The pressure measurement trainer lets students apply the same small pressure to three instruments and compare their readings and sensitivity, showing why an inclined manometer suits very low pressures, a basic practical in fluid mechanics and instrumentation courses.
- Comparing U-tube, inclined tube and Bourdon tube pressure measurement
- Measuring positive and negative pressures in the millibar range
- Checking instrument readings with the calibration device
- Fluid mechanics and instrumentation practicals in engineering colleges and polytechnics
