Description
The Fortin’s Barometer is a traditional precision instrument for measuring atmospheric pressure using a mercury column. Its adjustable cistern allows the mercury level to be set accurately before taking a reading, making it suitable for careful laboratory measurements. It offers students a practical understanding of atmospheric pressure, mercury barometers, pressure scales, and variations in air pressure.
