A Diaphragm Pressure Gauge is an instrument used to measure low to moderate pressure of gases and liquids. It consists of a flexible diaphragm, usually made of metal or elastomer. When pressure is applied, the diaphragm deflects or deforms. This deformation is proportional to the applied pressure. The movement of the diaphragm is transmitted through a mechanical linkage. The linkage drives a pointer across a calibrated dial to show the pressure reading. It is especially suitable for measuring low pressures and differential pressures. Diaphragm gauges are commonly used in chemical, food, and pharmaceutical industries. They can handle corrosive and viscous fluids with proper material selection. Overall, it is a sensitive and accurate device for pressure measurement.Diaphragm pressure gauges are specialized instruments used to measure low-pressure, viscous, or corrosive media, separating the process fluid from the mechanism using a flexible membrane.
