Pressure Gauges and Tachometer
The pressure gauges (P_0 & P_1) measure the pressure upsteam and downstream of the pump
respectively. The pressure rise across the pump is calculated by simply substracting
the values read on the inlet pressure gauge (P_0) from the value read on the outlet
pressure gauge (P_1). Note that the units of P_0 are in inches of water (in.H2O) and
P_1 are in feet of water (FT.H2O). The tachometer measures the motor speed in
revolutions per minute (RPM). The range is 0-2000 rpm with +/- 2% of full scale
accuracy.
