Technical Definitions of Terminology

A pressure transducer or pressure sensor that has an internal reference chamber sealed at or close to 0 psia (full vacuum) and normally provides increasing output voltage for increases in pressure.

The reduction of response at the resonant frequency through the use of a damping media such as oil. Usually specified as the ratio of critical damping.

The pressure above (or below) atmospheric. Represents positive difference between measured pressure and existing atmospheric pressure. Can be converted to absolute by adding actual atmospheric pressure value.
