An air pressure monitoring cabinet. Lots of these dotted about in some form or another in most of the test cells. Engines under test had pressure monitoring points all over them, piped back to a cabinet such as this one. The transducers were wired to an data logging system, probably the cabinet behind it, signals from this went back to the computer building. Computers were an Elliott 803B, Digital PDP-7, Scientific Data Systems SDS 9300 and a Digital PDP11-45.
