Endress Hauser E&H PTP31B Industrial IT Rental Service PMD75 Ceramic Sensor Pressure Transmitter

Absolute vs. Gauge Pressure

• Absolute Pressure: Measured relative to a perfect vacuum (0 bar absolute). This type of measurement is crucial in applications where precise pressure readings are necessary, regardless of atmospheric variations.
• Gauge Pressure: Measured relative to atmospheric pressure (0 bar gauge). This is commonly used in applications where the pressure difference from the surrounding environment is of primary interest.

The Ceraphant PTP31B can be configured to measure either absolute or gauge pressure, depending on the specific requirements of the application.
