15、 = O Introduction In the preparation of this international standard, the following two principles have been followed as far as possible: - to standardize suitable terms without perpetuating unsuitable terms merely because they have been used in the past; - to discard any term which is used with diff

16、erent meanings and to replace it by a term which has an unequivocal meaning. 1 Scope This European Standard defines the fundamental and general terms to be used for pressure gauges. 2 Definitions relating to pressure gauges 2.1 indicating pressure gauge A measuring instrument which displays the valu

17、e of the applied pressure by means of a pointer relative to a scale. 2.2 indicating pressure gauges with an elastic measuring element Instrument in which the mechanical measuring sequence directly transmits the elastic deformation of the sensing element to the indicating device, consisting of a poin

18、ter and a graduated scale. 2.3 pressure gauge An indicator of the applied (gauge) pressure with respect to the atmospheric pressure. 2.4 vacuum gauge An indicator of the applied (gauge) vacuum with respect to the atmospheric pressure. 2.5 combined pressure and vacuum gauge A combined indicator of th

26、e the pressure applied causes the diaphragm to deflect in proportion to the pressure. 3.1.3 capsule A type of pressure-responsive element comprising of two diaphragms suitably shaped and joint pressure-tight around their circumference. The pressure commonly acts on the interior of the capsule and th

27、e expansion generated thus is proportional to the pressure. 3.1.4 bellows A type of pressure-responsive element in the form of a thin-walled convoluted tube. The change in its length is proportional to the pressure. CEN ENx472 94 3404589 OlO5lOl 3Tl W Page 4 EN 472 : -1994 3.2 movement An assembly b
