Manometers

A manometer is an instrument that measures the pressure of gases and liquids; this category includes a handheld digital manometer that shows positive and negative pressure and the pressure difference between two points on a digital display. It is used to read duct pressure in ventilation and air-conditioning systems, the pressure difference between filter inlet and outlet, and similar low pressures. According to the product data, the Unit UT366A measures in the ±15 kPa range with an accuracy of 0.5 percent of full scale; it displays in units such as kPa, mbar and psi, warns with a green LED for positive pressure and a red LED for negative pressure, and runs on three AAA batteries. Compare the pressure range and unit you will measure, the required accuracy, whether the fluid to be measured is suitable for the device, and the hose connection size against the product data. Because pressure exceeding the range can damage the sensor, the highest expected pressure must stay below the device's limit value. A handheld digital manometer does not replace the dial process manometer that is permanently connected to an installation.
