Definition of vacuum

By the application of medical aspiration devices, vacuum is normally given as the difference
(in absolute figures) between absolute pressure and atmospheric pressure or as negative
values in Kilopascal (kPa). In this document, the indication of -10 kPa for example always
refers to a pressure range in kPa below atmospheric ambient pressure (according to
EN ISO 10079:1999).
