The compound vacuum gauge can also be used to determine the amount of suction in the line available for operating the air volume control. Most vacuum-operated AVC' s require a minimum of 5-6 in. Hg during pump operation and a zero or slight pressure reading when the pump is stopped. 1, record 2, English, - vacuum%2Doperated%20air%20volume%20control

Le manovacuomètre sert également à déterminer si la dépression dans la canalisation est suffisante pour faire fonctionner le régulateur de volume d'air. La plupart des régulateurs de volume d'air par le vide requièrent une valeur minimum de 5 à 6 pouces Hg lorsque la pompe est en marche, et de zéro (0) ou proche de 0 lorsque la pompe est arrêtée. 1, record 2, French, - r%C3%A9gulateur%20de%20volume%20d%27air%20par%20le%20vide

In the pressure type air gauge, air passes through a filter and regulator and is then divided into two channels. The air in the reference channel escapes to atmosphere through a zero setting valve. The air in the measuring channel escapes to atmosphere through the gauge head jets. The two channels are connected by an extremely accurate differential pressure meter. The master is placed over the gauging spindle and the zero setting valve is adjusted until the gauge needle indicates zero. Any deviation in the workpiece size from the master size changes the reading. 2, record 3, English, - pressure%20type%20air%20gauge
