A cistern manometer is a type of pressure measurement device that consists of a U-shaped tube filled with liquid, typically water or Mercury, where one end is open to the atmosphere and the other is connected to the pressure source. The difference in liquid levels between the two arms of the tube indicates the pressure exerted by the source. This difference can be read directly from a scale, allowing for accurate measurement of pressure in various applications. Cistern manometers are commonly used in laboratories and industrial settings for pressure monitoring.

What is compound manometer?

Compound Manometer is an 'U' Tube manometer having 'T' joints at appropriate equal elevation in the columns of U tube manometer where the impulse lines are to be connected to measure Differential Pressure. T joint allows the use Two liquids simultaneously in the manometer. i.e. the liquid who's differential pressure is to be measured being lighter it will gauge at the top and a heavier liquid which does not dissolve with the lighter fluid will gauge at the bottom. Elevation difference in lighter liquid as well as heavier liquids gives their respective differential pressure. Both the differential pressure will be equal in terms of Pressure Units. Since two liquids are used simultaneously this type of U tube manometer is called Compound Manometer.


What is the difference between a manometer and a pitot?

A manometer is a device for measuring pressures, especially the word is used for pressure meters that are constructed to use a liquid in a transparent U-tube. A peizometer is specifically about measuring pressures in ground water wells.
