Description

Aneroid gauge, known as the " Bourdon gauge," from the name of its inventor, a Frenchman. B is a bent tube closed at its ends, secured at C, the middle of its length, and having its ends free. Pressure of steam or other fluid admitted to tube tends to straighten it more or less, according to its intensity. The ends of tube are connected with a toothed sector-piece gearing, with a pinion or the spindle of a pointer which indicates the pressure on a dial.
