Water lift
Relative to vacuum cleaners, water lift measures the strength of the vacuum produced by the suction motor. Suction gauges are calibrated in terms of "inches of water lift," and this is equivalent to taking a vertical tube, placing the bottom in a container of water, attaching the vacuum hose at the top, and measuring how high above the water surface the water in the tube rises.
