摘要:
There is disclosed apparatus for measuring multiple pressures within different pressure ranges. The apparatus contains multiple pressure sensors which are positioned on a housing, where each pressure sensor is adapted to measure pressure within a different pressure range. The housing has an input port which is constructed to communicate with different output ports, where the output ports communicate with each different pressure sensor utilized in a different pressure range. The input port has a stepped or keyed aperture which is adapted to receive different pressure adapters to assure that, for example, only a high pressure will be applied to the high pressure sensor during high pressure measurements. By selecting another adapter, a mid-range pressure and a high pressure will be applied to the pressure sensors during the measurement of a mid-range pressure. By receiving a different adapter, a low pressure will be applied to all the pressure sensors during low pressure measurement. In this manner, one is assured that the pressure sensors are operated without damage to the diaphragms during all pressure measurements. It is of course noted that while three pressure ranges are indicated, there can be more than three or at least two pressure ranges can be accommodated within the common housing. As indicated, the common housing has an input port which consists of contiguous varying diameter sections to enable the selective insertion of various adapter members as indicated where each adapter member can only be inserted within the input port to a desired position, where at that position, the pressure applied to the input port will be directed to the proper sensor.
