For a U type manometer, a special manometer fluid with a density of 700 ∓ 1 kg/m3 is used. One end of the manometer is open to the local atmospheric pressure of 744 mm-Hg. When the other end of the manometer is connected to the compressed air source, the level difference read from the manometer is 20 cm ± 1 mm.
