pressure that will register on a pressure gauge, plus atmospheric pressure present, e.g., a gauge pressure of 68.5 pounds per square inch (psi) at (68.5 plus 14.7 equals 83.2); in the United States, absolute pressure is expressed as pounds per square inch absolute, or as psi

Helpful?           0
The pressure above zero, i.e., the sum of atmospheric and gauge pressure. In vacuum related work it is usually expressed in millimeters of mercury (mm-Hg).

Gauge pressure plus 14.7 psi (1 bar)
Helpful?           0
pressure measured relative to absolute zero pressure (perfect vacuum). The output of the absolute sensor will change as a result of barometric pressure change. Thus it can be used as a barometer.
