Portable
Portable manometer test equipment indicates pressure. Applications include filter monitoring, laboratories, fan status, duct static pressure, and field calibration of other instruments. Dwyer's manometers are precision instruments in inclined and vertical styles. Most versatile and useful low cost manometers we know of.

Questions
- Question
- Why doesn't 1 inch on the scale of a 1223-12-D manometer equal 1 inch on a ruler?
- Answer
- The calibration scale on the manometer has been compensated for the specific gravity of red gage fluid which is less than water.
- Question
- Since water will not mix with oil, why can't a D-style manometer be used to measure water pressures?
- Answer
- The weight of the water itself is also being measured which results in erroneous readings.
- Question
- What are the principle advantages of red gage fluid over water for use in manometers?
- Answer
- Red gage fluid is slow to evaporate, won't freeze, is more readable and produces slightly expanded scales for better reading resolution.
- Question
- Will the water manometers freeze?
- Answer
- Yes, if the temperature drops below 32 degrees Fahrenheit, the fluid in the manometer will freeze. The fluid used in "W/M" style manometers is water-based with a small amount of fluorescent green fluid to enhance the meniscus. The other gage fluids have a lower freezing point, however, it is recommended that the manometers be stored above 32 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Question
- How does a manometer measure gage and differential pressure?
- Answer
- Manometers simply measure the pressure by indicating the amount of displacement a liquid of known weight undergoes when a force is applied. This concept is best explained through illustrations in our Bulletin D-21 or in our Application Guides on how to use pressure products.
