Special features:
Total measurement uncertainty to 0.006% of measured value
Dual-range piston-cylinder system with fully automated changing between ranges
Factory calibration includes traceability to national standars, as standard. Optional with UKAS or DKD/DAkkS calibration
High long-term stability with recommended recalibration cycle every 5 years
Fast and safe replacement of the piston-cylinder system via quick-release system as an option
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 LDW-H is ideal for on-site use for maintenance and service.
Basic principle
Pressure is defined as the quotient of force and area.
