pressure gauge

A pressure gauge is a device that measures the force exerted by a fluid (liquid or gas) within a container or system. It provides a reading of how much pressure the fluid is under, usually in units like pounds per square inch (psi), bar, or pascals. This information helps ensure systems operate safely and efficiently, preventing damage or failure caused by abnormal pressure levels. Pressure gauges are used in various applications, including medical devices, industrial machines, and plumbing systems, offering a real-time indication of pressure to monitor and manage system performance.
