Deadweight Testers

Deadweight Testers

We carry new deadweight testers for your pressure calibration and testing requirements.

Deadweight testers can be used to calibrate virtually any pressure sensing device, including transducers, transmitters, gauges, or pressure switches.

Deadweight testers are the primary standard for pressure measurement. Utilizing the well proven piston-gauge system consisting of a vertically mounted, precision lapped piston and cylinder assembly, accurately calibrated weight masses (Force) are loaded on the piston (Area), which rises freely within its cylinder. These weights balance the upward force created by the pressure within the system. The pressure is measured when placed on a correctly spinning and floating piston. The total pressure measured is the summation of the weights plus the piston weight carrier assembly.

If you need assistance selecting or configuring a deadweight tester pressure calibrator for your pressure testing application please contact us at toll free 1.866.363.6634 or email us at [email protected].
