It is important to determine which is necessary for your process, so you can make sure to order the correct instrument. Here, we discuss the differences between absolute and gauge pressure readings and list common use cases for either.<\/span>\n\n<span><\/span>\n<ul>\n\t<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Absolute pressure\u00a0<\/strong>is referenced to perfect vacuum. It indicates how much higher your process pressure is than that of a process in vacuum, so measurements are always positive. Absolute pressure readings are commonly used in vacuum processes, such as vacuum deposition.<\/span><\/li>\n\t<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Gauge pressure<\/strong>\u00a0is referenced to local atmospheric pressure. It indicates how much above or below local atmospheric pressure your process pressure is, so measurements can be either positive or negative.<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>When to use absolute pressure<\/h2>\nIn some situations, it is fairly straightforward whether absolute or gauge pressure should be used. Absolute pressure should be used in processes requiring a specific amount of pressure, regardless of what happens in the atmosphere.\n\nApplications that require measurement or control of low atmospheric pressures almost always benefit most from absolute pressure control. A couple example include back pressure control for process analyzers and flow characterization for cigarette filters.\n<h2>When to use gauge pressure<\/h2>\n<p class=\"nitro-offscreen nitro-lazy-render\">Gauge pressure controllers add or remove air as the ambient air pressure fluctuates, to maintain the desired pressure differential. This means gauge pressure should be used when your process requires a certain pressure relative to atmospheric pressure.<\/p>\n<p class=\"nitro-offscreen nitro-lazy-render\">Gauge pressure is typically used in processes where pressure cannot dip below atmospheric pressure, such as when measuring and controlling tire pressure.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"nitro-offscreen nitro-lazy-render\">When either gauge or absolute pressure are viable options<\/h2>\n<p class=\"nitro-offscreen nitro-lazy-render\">Sometimes it is a little more challenging to determine which is right to use. The following examples illustrate situations where either gauge or absolute pressure could work, depending on what types of measurement and control you are looking for.<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.23.1&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; header_font=&#8221;|700|||||||&#8221; header_font_size=&#8221;32px&#8221; header_2_font_size=&#8221;28px&#8221; min_height=&#8221;117.9px&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;||-12px|||&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;25px|10px|25px|10px|true|true&#8221; border_radii=&#8221;on|7px|7px|7px|7px&#8221; border_width_all=&#8221;3px&#8221; border_color_all=&#8221;#FFFFFF&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; theme_builder_area=&#8221;post_content&#8221;]<h1><strong>Example 1:<\/strong><\/h1>\n<h2>Changing altitude<\/h2>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.23.1&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; min_height=&#8221;640.1px&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;-64px|auto||82px||&#8221; custom_margin_tablet=&#8221;29px|auto|-8px|auto|false|true&#8221; custom_margin_phone=&#8221;-159px|auto||auto|false|true&#8221; custom_margin_last_edited=&#8221;on|tablet&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;20px||20px||true|&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; theme_builder_area=&#8221;post_content&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.23.1&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; theme_builder_area=&#8221;post_content&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.23.1&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; width=&#8221;97.2%&#8221; min_height=&#8221;188.2px&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;6px|||||&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;0px||18px|||&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; theme_builder_area=&#8221;post_content&#8221;]<p class=\"nitro-offscreen nitro-lazy-render\">As altitude increases, the amount of gas molecules in the air decreases leading to a decrease in atmospheric pressure.
