Pressure Measurement Bench
The Pressure Measurement Bench (Product Code: SLE/EFM/26) is a two-unit teaching apparatus that lets students investigate and compare vertical and inclined U-tube manometers with Bourdon-type vacuum and pressure gauges, and then see how a Bourdon gauge is calibrated. Because manometers and Bourdon gauges sit inside more complex instruments such as pneumatic comparators and flow indicators, the bench gives mechanical and instrumentation students a clear grounding in how these devices work before they meet them in larger systems. It is manufactured by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, as lab equipment for technical institutes, engineering colleges and polytechnics.
Key Details
| Parameter | Detail |
|---|---|
| Type | Bench apparatus for studying pressure-measuring instruments |
| Units supplied | Two: a manometers and gauges unit, and a Bourdon pressure gauge calibration unit |
| Manometers and gauges unit | Framed structure with a backboard carrying all the instruments listed below |
| Manometers | Vertical U-tube manometer; U-tube manometer with an inclined limb |
| Bourdon gauges | One gauge for measuring vacuum; one gauge for measuring positive pressure |
| Pressure source | Syringe assembly for pressurising and for reducing pressure |
| Calibration unit | Separate Bourdon gauge with dead-weight calibration apparatus, arranged so the Bourdon tube mechanism can be clearly observed |
| Learning focus | Operation, characteristics and principles of calibration of manometers and Bourdon gauges |
Typical Use
In a typical practical, students use the syringe assembly to apply a small positive pressure or a partial vacuum and read the vertical U-tube, the inclined-limb manometer and the matching Bourdon gauge side by side. Comparing the readings shows why an inclined limb spreads a small pressure change over a longer length of scale, why liquid-column instruments suit low pressures, and how a mechanical dial gauge responds to the same input. Changing the syringe setting slowly and letting the liquid columns settle before reading gives more consistent results.
The second half of the session moves to the calibration unit. Students load the dead-weight apparatus, note the Bourdon gauge reading against the known applied pressure, and build a calibration table or curve while watching the curved Bourdon tube move the pointer. The bench is well suited to fluid mechanics and instrumentation courses that need engineering lab equipment in India for both demonstration and small-group work.
Manufacturer
This bench is built by Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, a company based in Ambala, Haryana, that trades under the name ScienceLab and makes apparatus for engineering, science and technical teaching laboratories. Background on the company and its range is available in our company profile.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is included with the Pressure Measurement Bench?
Two units: the manometers and gauges unit (vertical U-tube manometer, inclined-limb U-tube manometer, vacuum Bourdon gauge, pressure Bourdon gauge and syringe assembly on a framed backboard) and a separate Bourdon gauge calibration unit with dead-weight apparatus.
Why are there two different manometers?
So students can compare them directly. Tilting one limb makes the liquid travel further along the scale for the same pressure change, which makes small pressures easier to read than on a vertical U-tube.
Can the bench show vacuum as well as positive pressure?
Yes. One Bourdon gauge measures vacuum and the other positive pressure, and the syringe assembly can both raise and reduce the pressure applied to the instruments.
What pressure ranges do the gauges cover?
Gauge ranges and the manometer fill liquid are not stated in our current product description. Please contact us for the detailed datasheet before ordering.
Can a calibration certificate be supplied with the gauges?
This depends on the order; please discuss your requirement with us through the contact page at the enquiry stage.
What should we include in a request for an institutional quotation?
Tell us the number of benches, the delivery address or port, and any tender format you must follow. Warranty terms are stated in the quotation itself.
Do you supply multiple benches or ship abroad?
Yes. We supply colleges and training centres across India and international markets; quantities, packing and dispatch time are confirmed when we quote.
