  2. Pirani gauge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pirani_gauge

    If the gas pressure is reduced, the number of molecules present will fall proportionately and the wire will lose heat more slowly. Measuring the heat loss is an indirect indication of pressure. There are three possible schemes that can be done. [2] Keep the bridge voltage constant and measure the change in resistance as a function of pressure

  3. Pressure measurement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_measurement

    Example of the widely used Bourdon pressure gauge Checking tire pressure with a spring and piston tire-pressure gauge. Pressure measurement is the measurement of an applied force by a fluid (liquid or gas) on a surface. Pressure is typically measured in units of force per unit of surface area.

  4. Tire-pressure gauge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tire-pressure_gauge

    A tire-pressure gauge, or tyre-pressure gauge, is a pressure gauge used to measure the pressure of tires on a vehicle. Proper tire pressure is crucial for vehicle safety, fuel efficiency, and tire longevity. Tire gauges come in various types, including analog, digital, and dial gauges, each offering different features and accuracy levels.

  5. Tire-pressure monitoring system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tire-pressure_monitoring...

    A tire-pressure monitoring system (TPMS) monitors the air pressure inside the pneumatic tires on vehicles. [1] A TPMS reports real-time tire-pressure information to the driver, using either a gauge, a pictogram display, or a simple low-pressure warning light. TPMS can be divided into two different types – direct (dTPMS) and indirect (iTPMS).

  6. Pressure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure

    For gases, pressure is sometimes measured not as an absolute pressure, but relative to atmospheric pressure; such measurements are called gauge pressure. An example of this is the air pressure in an automobile tire, which might be said to be "220 kPa (32 psi)", but is actually 220 kPa (32 psi) above atmospheric pressure. Since atmospheric ...

    Barometer used to measure the atmospheric pressure. Manometer (see Pressure measurement and Pressure sensor) Pitot tube (measures airspeed) Tire-pressure gauge in industry and mobility; For the ranges of pressure-values see: Orders of magnitude (pressure)

  8. Load cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Load_cell

    The pneumatic load cell is designed to automatically regulate the balancing pressure. Air pressure is applied to one end of the diaphragm and it escapes through the nozzle placed at the bottom of the load cell. A pressure gauge is attached to the load cell to measure the pressure inside the cell.
