A "U" shaped manometer is used to measure differences in pressure between the two ends. If one end is open to the atmosphere, it measures the difference between atmospheric pressure and the pressure where the other end is connected. When one end is evacuated and sealed it measures the difference between the vapor pressure of the manometer fluid (which is usually negligible) and the pressure of whatever the other end is connected to. When connected to two different locations along a pipe, it measures the pressure drop. If a constriction is placed in the pipe, this can be used to gauge the flow rate in the pipe.
I think you're looking for U-Tube Manometer
A manometer is a device that is used to measure the pressure of a fluid. The U-shaped glass tube is partially filled with a liquid, usually mercury. The difference between the height of the mercury corresponds to the difference between the pressure of the fluid in the container and the atmospheric pressure.
Electrical manometer is an electronic manometer use to record pressures between two points. It is commonly used in recording pressure in bridges.
To determine Pressure
because you want to
To effectively use a manometer to measure pressure, first ensure the manometer is properly calibrated and zeroed. Next, connect one end of the manometer to the system or device where pressure is to be measured. The other end should be open to the atmosphere. The difference in fluid levels in the manometer will indicate the pressure. Read the measurement from the scale on the manometer to determine the pressure accurately.

To determine pressure
A manometer measures pressure. The units depend on the type of manometer and how it's calibrated. Units include psi, barr, Torr, atm, pascals, and kilopascals.

When oil is added to one side of a U-shaped manometer, the pressure in that side increases, causing the liquid level to rise in that arm and drop in the other arm. This creates an imbalance in pressure, with the higher pressure side pushing the liquid up higher.
