What does a barrow meter measure?

I think you could be referring to a barometer, which measures atmospheric pressure and is an indicator of when it will rain or shine.


Which unit is used to measure atmospheric pressure?

Newtons / square meter. This unit has the special name Pascal.


What does a compound pressure gauge measure?

A compound pressure gauge measures both positive and negative pressures relative to atmospheric pressure. It typically consists of two pressure sensors, one for measuring positive pressure (above atmospheric pressure) and one for measuring negative pressure (below atmospheric pressure). This type of gauge is commonly used in applications where both types of pressure need to be monitored, such as in HVAC systems or industrial processes.


What gauge measures both vacuum and pressure?

Gauge pressure usually refers to the pressure difference between ambient, atmospheric pressure and the pressure in a vessel or line. A gauge pressure of zero would mean that the vessel or line was at atmospheric pressure. Normally the pressures of interest are ABOVE atmospheric so the gauge pressure is positive. Vacuum gauge pressure measures how far BELOW atmospheric pressure a vessel or line is. As such vacuum gauge pressure may be measured as a negative number - or for convenience it may be reported as a positive number with the caveat that it is "vacuum gauge pressure", meaning that the reported pressure is how far atmospheric pressure is above the pressure in the vessel or line.
