manometer recommendation

antibond - 14-12-2004 at 10:15

I would like to replace my old mercury manomter with a digital manometer and was hoping someone here has had personal experience with one and could suggest a good brand/ model. Would like the read out in millibar or torr/mm hg (range approx. 0-200 mmhg). While the Pyrex Hg manometer has served me well, the few times when I've had to change out the mecury is too much of a pain.

Any particular country?

More importantly, which pressure region?
Are you looking for measuring vacuum or >1atm pressure?

I'm located in the USA. The pressure range that I'm interested in is from slightly less than 1 torr to about 200 mm Hg.
