The manometer panel contains 2 tube and 2 dial manometers for the demonstration of alternative measurement methods. Test pressures in the millibar range are generated with the aid of the supplied syringe. All manometers of the manometer panel can be combined with one another using connecting hoses. It is possible to measure gauge pressure and vacuum. An additional Bourdon tube manometer can be calibrated with a dead-weight piston gauge.
