Pressure Calibration

Pressure Calibration

Calibration and metrology training can help you and your staff become more knowledgeable in a wide variety of disciplines. Our instructors are experts who work in electrical calibration, temperature calibration, pressure and flow calibration, and who really want to help you learn the foundation and techniques of metrology that you can put to immediate use in your workplace. Please see the list of calibration training and metrology training courses below.

A five-day training course on the principles and practices of pressure calibration using digital pressure calibrators and piston gauges (pressure balances).

  • Fundamental physics of pressure
  • Moves through Metrological terminology
  • Calibration principles
  • Piston gauge fundamentals
  • Day-to-day issues that can influence the quality of a calibration

Advanced Piston Gauge Metrology

Focus is on the theory, use and calibration of piston gauges and dead weight testers.

  • Complete Piston Gauge theory including term by term discussion of the pressure equation
  • Review of all Piston Gauge modes and calculation of required mass loads for each
  • How to maintain and calibrate the piston gauge metrological elements
  • History and challenges in traceability of Piston Gauges
  • Determination of effective area by dimensional characterization and crossfloat
  • Hands on crossfloat of gas and hydraulic piston-cylinders
  • Calibration of crossfloating to determine the effective area of piston-cylinders
  • Sources of uncertainty and uncertainty analysis of pressure and effective area

TWB 1061 Principles of Pressure Calibration Web-Based Training (Online)

This is a short form of the regular five-day in-person Principles of Pressure Calibration class.

  • Physics of pressure
