Description
Proven primary standard
Dead weight testers are the most accurate instruments 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. It has therefore been used for years in factory and calibration laboratories in industry, national institutes and research laboratories.
Stand-alone operation
Due to its integrated pressure generation and the pure mechanical measuring principle, the model CPB5800 dead weight tester 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 of the model CPB5800 dead weight tester is therefore a very precisely-manufactured piston-cylinder system,
