Summary:

The tilting manometer gauge was designed to meet the requirements of a manometer for use in connection with a static pressure plate, to indicated the wind speed in the tunnel. These requirements are: first, that the sensitivity of the gauge may be made inversely proportional to the pressure to be measured; second, that the gauge may be accurately and quickly set for any desired pressure; third, that when set at the desired pressure the extent of variation between the existing and the desired pressures may be readily estimated.
