Instrument used to measure small changes in atmospheric pressure (+/- 10 cm of hg) in physics experiments. Liquid column gauges consist of a vertical column of liquid in a tube whose ends are exposed to different pressures. The column will rise or fall until its weight is in equilibrium with the pressure differential between the two ends of the tube. The difference in liquid level represents the applied pressure. The concept of the manometer is now used in aviation instruments and weather forecasting etc. Physics Pneumatics & air pressure Gauges             metal->mercury;glass   8 22.5       http://source.techno-science.ca/artifacts-artefacts/images/1966.0217.001.aa.cs.png http://source.techno-science.ca/artifacts-artefacts/images/1966.0217.001.aa.cs.thumb.png

BY 1943 IT WAS STATION BAROMETER AT MAJORITY OF CANADIAN OBSERVING STATIONS & SEVERAL VERSIONS INCLUDING MOUNTAIN & MARINEINSTRUMENTS WERE PRODUCED BY MSC IN SUBSEQUENT YEARS. AN INSTRUMENT THAT MEASURES ATMOSPHERIC PRESSURE THROUGH ITS EFFECT ON A COLUMN OF MERCURY. SUCCESSFUL ATTEMPT TO COMBINE SIMPLICITY OF READING OF FIXED CISTERN BAROMETER & EASE OF TRANSPORT OF ADJUSTABLE CISTERN TYPE. INSTRUMENT HAS PLUNGER AT BASE THAT CAN BE RAISED TO FILL CISTERN & TUBE DURINGTRANSPORT; WHEN IN USED SCREW HOLDING PLUNGER IS REMOVED TO RELEASE LEATHER BAG* IS REPLACED BY PLUG. THIS INSTRUMENT SUCCEEDED KEW FIXED CISTERN BAROMETER AT CANADIAN OBSERVING STATIONS.
