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.

What does a double tube manometer measure?
A double tube manometer measure pressure. Manometers use liquid in a column and balance it against the pressure that they are measuring.
How do you calculate static pressure of AHU?

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.
Types of manometer?
the most common type of manometer are u-tube type,inclined and the cistern type of manometer
What are the advantages and disadvantages for inclined tube manometer?
the scale that is attached to the inclined tube are more sensibly then scale in vertical form that are in U-tube manometerdisadvantage is that it is costly and tough to handle.
Inclined-tube manometer why are they used to measure low pressure?
the fluid level in manometer will rise through an inclined line rather than vertical line. So when ever there is slight variation in pressure the manometer (inclined) will be able read it. The pressure drop is given by P=h*density*g*sin(angle).
How manometer can read a very small changes in pressur?
By cathetometer (precise but expensive), or by inclined tube method
How do you use a inclined water manometer for AIRCONDITI?
To use an inclined water manometer for air conditioning, you would first connect one end of the manometer tube to the air conditioning system at a pressure measurement point. Then, you would position the manometer at an incline to measure the pressure difference between the two ends of the tube. This pressure difference can help determine if the system is operating within the desired pressure range.
What is the Well type inclined manometer?
A well-type inclined manometer is a device used for measuring small pressure differences in fluids. It consists of a U-shaped tube partially filled with a colored liquid, with one leg inclined at an angle to increase sensitivity. The liquid in the well acts as a reference point for measuring pressure differentials.

What is Working principle of venturi tube?
Venturi tube is used to for flow measurement. It work on the principle of Bernoulli Equation.
What is the name of a U Shape tube used to measure the pressure of gases?
Manometer.
What are the uses of the manometer?
air, fluids and very low pressures equal & unequal leg u tube manometer, cistern manometer, u tube manometer.
How does a inclined manometer work?
An inclined manometer is a device used to measure pressure differences in a system. It consists of a U-shaped tube partially filled with a liquid (like mercury or water) with one end connected to the system being measured. The difference in liquid levels in each arm of the tube is proportional to the pressure difference between the two points. The angle of inclination allows for a more sensitive measurement of small pressure differences.
