Pressure and temperature indicators

 Types of pressure
- Absolute pressure is zero-referenced against a perfect vacuum, so it is equal to
gauge pressure plus atmospheric pressure. Gauge pressure is zero-referenced
against ambient air pressure, so it is equal to absolute pressure minus
atmosphericpressure.

- Gauge pressure is zero referenced against ambient air pressure, so it is equal to

absolute pressure minus atmospheric pressure. Negative signs are usually omitted.
Differential pressure is the difference in pressure between two points, gauge
pressure uses a reference to the atmosphere around the sensor.

- Differential pressure is apressure that is measured relative to the pressure in the

atmosphere around it. The other type of pressure is absolute pressure, which is
measured against absolute zero, but is not often used to measure pressure in real-
life scenarios
