Pressure Measurement and Calibration

Specification:

• A bench top unit comprising a simple Dead-weight Pressure Calibrator with weights to generate a range of predetermined pressures that is connected to a Bourdon gauge and electronic pressure sensor. The Bourdon gauge incorporates an arbitrary scale in addition to the pressure scale and a clear acrylic front face allows observation of the Bourdon tube and the operating mechanism. A reservoir with isolating valve allows the calibrator, Bourdon gauge and pressure sensor to be easily primed.
• An electrical console houses the necessary electronics with current protection devices and an RCD for operator protection. A digital meter with selector switch displays the output from the pressure sensor as well as the conditioned reading in engineering units. Corresponding signals are routed to an I/O Port for connection to a PC. An optional interface device with educational software package is available.
• The Dead-weight Pressure Calibrator, Bourdon gauge and pressure sensor are mounted on a common PVC baseplate. The electrical console is free standing.
• Pressure sensors, manometers or Bourdon gauges other than those supplied can be calibrated over the range 20 kNm-2 to 200 kNm-2.
• A comprehensive instruction manual is included with a range of fully detailed Laboratory Teaching Exercises.

Key Features:

• Includes simple Dead-weight Pressure Calibrator using water for safety and ease of use
• Bourdon gauge and electronic sensor included for calibration
• Operating mechanism of Bourdon gauge visible through clear scale
• Electrical sensor can be logged using a PC (optional teaching software available)
