Bourdon tube pressure gauge – functional principle
| Jürgen Reiser | Know-howBourdon tube pressure gauges are the most frequently used mechanical pressure measuring instruments. Their pressure element is often referred to as a Bourdon tube: The French engineer Eugène Bourdon made use of this functional principle in the middle of the 19th …
Selection criteria for pressure gauges: type of pressure
| Jürgen Reiser | Know-howWithin the selection criteria for pressure gauges, type of pressure takes top priority. The measurement of gauge pressure, in fact, reliably fulfils the purpose with the majority of processes. However, for numerous applications in industry, pressure gauges for absolute …

Filling liquids in pressure gauges: Usage and advantages
| Sandra Broßler | Pressure, ProductsLiquid-filled pressure gauges are used in applications that involve high dynamic shock and vibration loading. The filling liquid dampens the vibrations that occur and thus takes the load off the mechanical components of the pressure gauge. Depending on the operating …
