Let’s dive into why this device stands out in the world of pressure calibration.

🔍 What is a Dead-Weight Tester?

A dead-weight tester is a mechanical calibration device that balances a known weight over a precise piston area to generate exact pressure. This technique is known as a primary standard method, making it one of the most accurate ways to calibrate pressure-measuring instruments.

Whether you’re working with pressure gauges, transmitters, or sensors, this tester ensures consistent, reliable results.

📈 Pressure Range: 1 to 120 Bar

The Single Range Dead-Weight Tester covers a broad range from 1 to 120 bar, making it ideal for calibrating both low-pressure and mid-pressure instruments. It offers the versatility technicians and engineers need for multiple applications — from lab settings to rugged industrial environments.
