    manometer that...

    I use is a regular, old U-tube the bachrach with blue fluid. Just recently I was starting up a burner and used a dial type and had trouble reading the manifold pressure accurately, when I called the mfg for help he told me to throw that @### thing away! Using the u tube I was able the read low enough and to follow the rise in pressure throughout the firing range. It saved me alot of time.

    Best bang for the buck,

    Dwyer 1227 dual inclined manometer.

    "Use Series 1227 as a regular U-tube manometer to read high-range pressure on the right leg, or as an inclined manometer to read low-range pressure on the bottom leg. Simply incline manometer until fluid levels read zero. No spirit level required. Magnetic clips hold the gage in position on a steel duct surface.

    Most versatile and useful low cost manometer we know of. Designed for installation and servicemen. A sturdy, clear plastic manometer, it offers single, direct readings in two ranges: As a U-tube, it reads from 0 to 16" of water; as an inclined gage, it reads from -.20 to 0 to 2.6" of water. Model 1227M (Metric) is 0 - 400 mm water column as a U-tube and -5 to 0 to 70 mm water column as an inclined gage. "How-to-use" instructions are printed directly on the scale."
