Masses made from stainless steel and aluminium, can be manufactured to local gravity
Proven primary pressure standard
Deadweight Tester / Pressure Balances are the most accurate instrument available on the market for the calibration of electronic or mechanical pressure measuring instruments. The direct measurement of the pressure (p = F / A), as well as the use of high-quality materials enable a very small measurement uncertainty, in conjunction with an excellent long-term stability of 5 years (recommended in accordance with German Calibration Service DKD/DAkkS).
The deadweight tester / pressure balance has therefore been used for years in factory and calibration laboratories in national institutes, research laboratories and in industry.
Stand-alone operation
Due to its integrated pressure generation and the pure mechanical measuring principle, the model LR-Cal CPB5000-HP is ideal for on-site use for maintenance and service.
Basic principle
Pressure is defined as the quotient of force and area. The core component
