How to measure vacuum pressure using a gauge pressure sensor
Gauge pressure transducer, also known as a relative pressure transducer, is a device used to measure the pressure at a specific point relative to atmospheric pressure. When a gauge pressure sensor measures less than atmospheric pressure, it produces a negative pressure reading. This characteristic is uniquely valuable in many applications, such as detecting sealing conditions in vacuum packaging machines, monitoring the operating efficiency of industrial vacuum systems, and even regulating pressure in research laboratories.
