Pressure definition

Pressure means relative pressure versus atmospheric pressure, unless otherwise stated.

Pressure means the total load or force per unit area acting on a surface.

Pressure means air pressure in bars above atmospheric pressure;

Examples of Pressure in a sentence

• Gas to be delivered to MEP at the Receipt Point(s) shall be at the pressure prevailing on MEP’s System at that point, but shall not in excess of the Maximum Allowable Operating Pressure (MAOP) stated for each Receipt Point in MEP’s Catalog of Points.

More Definitions of Pressure

Pressure means pressure relative to atmospheric pressure, i.e. gauge pressure. As a consequence, vacuum is designated by a negative value.

Pressure means an expression of pounds per square inch above atmospheric pressure, i.e., gauge pressure (abbreviated “psig”)

Pressure means relative internal pressure in pounds per square inch gauge (psig).

Pressure means negative pressure if the compression of the springs is obtained by means of a vacuum device.

Pressure means the gauge pressure, expressed in bar, which is the difference between the absolute pressure of the gas and the atmospheric pressure.

Pressure means the difference in effective electrical potential measured in volts normally existing between conductors and between conductors and the earth;

Pressure means the difference of electrical potential between any two conductors, or between a conductor and earth as read by a hot wire or electrostatic volt-meter;
