OPERATOR’S MANUAL
BASIC FACTS
PRESSURE EQUIVALENTS
Simply stated, pressure is the force exerted by a gas or liquid attempting to escape from a container. It is useful to
know how strong this “attempt to escape” is. Pressure can be measured with a manometer or with a pressure gauge.
At the lower levels, it is expressed in “water column inches” i.e. 11 w.c.i. Higher pressures are expressed in terms of
the force exerted against a square inch of area, for example, 125 lbs. per square inch (125 psi).
