3. THE MAIN TYPES OF MEASUREMENT 
Direct measurement, indirect measurement and sealed component measurement. 
These three methods apply to measurements taken both under pressure and in vacuum 
conditions.  
The configuration is determined by the application and must be carried out prior to the 
use of the instrument. 
4. THE THREE TYPES OF TEST

: measurement of a pressure 
variation between a test part and a reference part.
