Digital differential pressure gauges, like VCR's P2000 model, are gaining traction in various applications due to their superior accuracy and advanced features.
This article serves as a comprehensive guide for engineers and professionals, simplifying the installation process of Digital pressure gauges.
Understanding Digital Differential Pressure Gauges
Digital differential pressure gauges utilize high-precision MEMS sensors and digital technology to offer several advantages over traditional mechanical gauges:
- Versatility: They can measure positive, negative, or differential pressure, making them suitable for diverse applications.
- Accuracy: They boast accuracy levels up to 1%FS (Full Scale), ensuring reliable measurements.
- Advanced Features: Many models offer features like:
- LED display for clear and user-friendly readings.
- Button settings for easy configuration.
- Sound alarms for critical pressure deviations.
- Input/output (I/O) capabilities for data logging and integration with control systems.
Applications of Digital Differential Pressure Gauges
Digital differential pressure gauges find use in various sectors, including:
- HVAC: Measuring fan and blower pressure, air velocity, and pressure drops across filters and orifice plates.
- Industrial: Monitoring fluid pressure in systems and equipment.
- Medical: Monitoring blood pressure and respiratory pressure in medical equipment.

Mounting Options
These differential pressure gauges offer versatile mounting options:
- Flush Mount: Installed directly into a panel or wall for a streamlined appearance.
- Surface Mount: Mounted directly onto a flat surface.
- Wall Mount: Attached to a wall using appropriate brackets.
Installation Digital Differential Pressure Gauges Process
1. Mounting:
Choose the appropriate mounting method and secure the gauge using suitable fasteners.
2. Pressure Connection:
- Positive Pressure Measurement: Connect the pressure source to the designated "high pressure" port and block the other high-pressure port. Leave both "low pressure" ports open to the atmosphere.
- Negative Pressure Measurement: Connect the pressure source to the designated "low pressure" port and block the other low-pressure port. Leave both "high pressure" ports open to the atmosphere.
- Differential Pressure Measurement: Connect the high and low pressure sources to their respective designated ports and block the remaining ports on each side.
