Pressure guage measurement system

Introduction of pressure gauge

 What is a Pressure Gauge ?

A pressure gauge is a method of measuring fluid, gas, water, or steam intensity in a
pressure powered machine to ensure there are no leaks or pressure changes that would affect the
performance of the system. Pressure systems are designed to operate within a specific pressure
range. Any deviation from the acceptable norms can seriously affect the workings of the system.
Pressure gauges have been used for more than a hundred years and have been constantly
evolving to fit the needs of new applications. The implementation and use of pressure gauges has
made them a necessity as more and more pressure systems become operational.

 Types of Pressure Gauges

1. Absolute Pressure Gauge

2. Bellows Pressure Gauge
3. Bourdon Tube Pressure Gauge
4. Capsule Pressure Gauge
5. Diaphragm Pressure Gauge
6. Differential (DP) Pressure Gauge
7. Manometer Pressure Gauge
8. Piezometer Pressure Gauge

Pressure Gauges Are Used

Pressure gauges are an essential instrument used by industry to measure the pressure in a
system as a quality check measure and to ensure the consistency of products. For reasons of safety,
pressure gauges monitor fluids, gases, and steam for leaks or a build up of pressure in a system.
The design, style, type, and configuration of a pressure gauge is determined by the application it
serves or the industry in which it is used. There are innumerable uses for pressure gauges, from
measuring the pressure in a swimming pool pump to measuring the pressure in a hydraulic line for
manufacturing equipment.

How to pressure guage work as measurement system:-

1) Primary Sensing Elements:-
The bourdon tube act as a both sensing & conversation elemet bourdon tube sense the pressure &
quantity to be mesured
2) Variable Conversation Elements:-
The main function of variable conversation element is convert the signal from one from to other
pressure is convert small displacement
3) Data Transmission Element :-

The mechanical linkage connecting to burdon tube & given arrangement contributes the data
transmission element the main function of data transmission element is transfer signal from one
element to other
4) Variable Manipollution Element :-
The variable manipollution element manunpolutes the signal presented to it without changes the
numeric value of signal
5) Data Presentation Element :-
Display the information about the measurement in pressure tube display the pressure values.

Applications and disadvantages

APPLICATIONS:-

− Oil industry

− Chemical industry

− Food industry

− Hydraulic

Conclusion:-
1) A pressure gauge is a method for measuring fluid, gas, water, or steam intensity in a pressure
powered machine to ensure there are no leaks or pressure changes that would affect the
performance of the system.
2) Pressure gauges have been used for more than a hundred years and have been constantly
evolving to fit the needs of new applications.
