The (+) port connects to the higher pressure and the (-) port connects to the lower pressure (often ambient pressure). Using these instruments to measure differential pressure is like using a digital voltmeter: when the pressure is connected the same way the tubes are marked, the meter displays a positive number. When the pressure is reversed, the meter displays a negative number.  \nAlthough different terms are used to describe different types of pressure, all pressure can bethought of as differential pressure. For instance, the term “absolute pressure” refers to the difference between an absolute vacuum and the pressure of interest. The absolute pressure of ambient air is known as barometric pressure.  \n\n| NOTE |\n| --- |\n| The differential pressure sensor cannot measure barometric pressure. If you try to measure barometric pressure (which is approximately 400 inches of water, or 101 kPa) by connecting the (-) port of the instrument to an absolute vacuum, the pressure sensor inside the unit will be destroyed because it is only designed to measure ±15 inches of water (3,735 kPa) . |\n\nStatic pressure describes the difference between the pressure inside and outside a system, disregarding any motion in the system. For instance, when referring to an air duct, static pressure is the difference between the pressure inside and outside the duct, without taking into account pressure from any air flow inside the duct. Static pressure is often measured inside ducts in order to determine how hard the blower is working.  \nA static pressure tip can be used for measuring static pressure. Attach the static pressure tip to a tube on the (+) port of the instrument. Keep the (-) port free so that it can measure ambient conditions. Make sure the static pressure tip is pointed directly into the airflow. If the static pressure in the duct is positive, the instrument will display a positive number. If the static pressure is negative, the instrument will display a negative number.  \nThe static pressure can also be measured using a regular pitot tube as shown in Figure 1, below. Apitot tube is a tube within a tube. The inside tube is open to the air at the tip of the tube (total pressure), and the outside tube is open on the sides of the tube (static pressure) . To measure static pressure with a pitot tube, you use only the static pressure port and ignore the total pressure port.  \nFigure 1: Measuring static pressure with pitot tube  \nThe instrument can also be used for measuring velocity pressure (Velocity Pressure = Total pressure-Static Pressure) with a pitot tube and converting into air velocity. It is useful in locations where the thermal anemometer probe cannot be used. For instance, it may be desired to measure velocity in an exhaust stack, where high temperatures and high particle content could damage the velocity probe.  \nFigure 2: Measuring velocity pressure with a pitot-static tube  \nThe front orifice of the pitot tube senses the total pressure, which is the static pressure in the duct plus the velocity pressure caused by air blowing into this orifice. By connecting the instrument to the pitot tube, you will get velocity pressure.  \nWhen the measurement conditions are close to standard conditions of 70°F (21.1°C) and 14.7 psia (29.92 in. mercury or 101.4 kPa), the following equations can be used with a pitot-static tube to compute velocity:  \nVft/min = 4004.4~~ ~~P  \nv  \nWhere:  \nVft/min = velocity in feet per minute  \nPv = velocity pressure measured by the instrument in inches of water  \nVm / s = 40.76Pv  \nWhere:  \nVm/s = velocity in meters per second  \nPv = velocity pressure measured by the instrument in kPa  \nIf the measurement conditions are substantially different from standard con","cbCaiiv9DSRLd3At","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiiv9DSRLd3At","pdf",322651,"English","# Differential Pressure Basics\n## Static Pressure Measurement Options\n## Velocity Pressure and Velocity Calculations","[{\"question\":\"How do the (+) and (−) pressure ports affect the micromanometer reading?\",\"answer\":\"Connect the (+) port to the higher pressure and the (−) port to the lower pressure.
