For a very basic explanation, a manometer measures the pressure differential between a closed pressure applied at one end and an open pressure at the other.
For example. If you have a typical u-bend manometer and you apply an air pressure at one end, the liquid will raise correspondingly, as the pressure on the closed side increases more and more above the ambient air pressure.
The amount it rises depends on the density of the liquid used and the diameter of the tubing.
So basically a manometer uses the height of a liquid to translate the amount above ambient air pressure, which is considered zero, of your pressure source.

How do you set up manometer?
To set up a manometer, first ensure that it is securely mounted in a vertical position. Fill the manometer with a fluid, typically mercury or water, making sure there are no air bubbles. Connect the manometer to the system you want to measure the pressure of, and then observe the height difference of the fluid levels in the manometer to determine the pressure.
How does a mercury pressure device work?
A mercury pressure device, such as a manometer, works based on the principle that the pressure of a fluid is directly proportional to the height of the fluid column. In a mercury manometer, a column of mercury is used to measure the pressure difference between two points. The difference in height of the mercury column indicates the pressure difference between the two points.
