Pressure Gauge
Pressure Gauge is a device that measures the pressure (intensity) of a fluid. It typically consists of a dial or digital display that indicates the pressure, along with a sensor that measures the pressure and converts it into an electrical signal that can be read by the display. Monitoring the pressure value of a hydraulic system keeps a check on the building pressure within the system. A hydraulic system is designed to work in a set pressure range, so it is crucial to ensure that the pressure gauge is rated for the operating range. Pressure gauges typically consist of a pressure-sensitive element (like a bourdon tube or diaphragm) connected to a measuring mechanism and display such as a dial or digital readout. The pressure-sensitive element deforms under the pressure of the gas or liquid, and this deformation is converted into a readable measurement by the measuring mechanism.
