Abstract
A pressure measurement device and method involves placing a load cell in a housing adjacent the pipe in which the pressure is to be measured. The housing includes a main block and clamping block. Pressure of the fluid in the pipe distorts the pipe and this distortion is detected by the load cell which produces a signal corresponding to that pressure.
