The invention relates to an electronic pressure gauge for measuring the
pressure (P) inside a container, particularly a pressurised gas cylinder,
said pressure gauge (1) including: at least one pressure sensor (14); an
electronic unit (44) designed to acquire, store and process data; and at
least one information device (34) capable of transmitting at least one
item of information (P). The pressure gauge also includes a first radio
(34) with a reception port, said first radio (34) being connected to the
electronic unit (44) so as to receive external data (D) in order to
modify the operation or the configuration of the pressure gauge (1). The
reception port of the first radio (34) is designed to read data modulated
in terms of the frequency and/or intensity of an external magnetic field
at a first low frequency, for example a frequency between 50 and 300 KHz.
The first radio includes a first radio transmission port connected to the
electronic unit (44) in order to transmit information (P) from the
pressure gauge (1). The first transmission port and the reception port of
the first radio (34) have a substantially identical transmission and
reception operating frequency. The invention is characterised in that it
includes a second radio (340) having only a transmission port, said
second radio (340) being connected to the electronic unit (44) for the
wireless transmission of information (P), in particular information
relating to the operation of the pressure gauge (1). The transmission
port of the second radio (340) is designed to transmit data by modulation
of frequency and/or intensity of a magnetic field at a second high
frequency, above the first frequency of the first radio (34), for example
between 300 KHz and 800 MHz.
