Deadweight Tester / Pressure Balance
Hydraulic & Compact Design
LDW-HK
Rel. 20120820
ApplicaƟons:
• Primary standard for dening the pressure scale in a
range up to 1200 bar hydraulic
• Reference instrument for factory and calibraƟon
laboratories for the tesƟng, adjustment and
calibraƟon of pressure measuring instruments
• Complete, stand-alone system, also suitable for
on-site use
Special features:
• Total measurement uncertainty to 0.025% of
measured value
• Factory calibraƟon includes traceability to naƟonal
standards, as standard; with UKAS- (DKD/DAkkS-)
calibraƟon possible as an opƟon
• High long-term stability with recommended
recalibraƟon cycle every ve years
• Masses manufactured from stainless steel, can be
adjusted to local gravity
• Compact dimensions
DescripƟon:
Proven primary standard
Pressure balances / Deadweight testers are the most
accurate instruments available on the market for the
calibraƟon of electronic or mechanical pressure
measuring instruments. The direct measurement of
the pressure (p = F/A), as well as the use of highquality materials enable a very small measurement
uncertainty, in conjuncƟon with an excellent longterm stability of ve years (recommended in
accordance with the German CalibraƟon Service
DKD/DAkkS).
The deadweight tester has therefore been used for
years in factory and calibraƟon laboratories in
industry, naƟonal insƟtutes and research laboratories.
Basic principle
Pressure is dened as the quoƟent of force and area.
The core component of the LR-Cal LDW-HK is
therefore a very precisely-manufactured pistoncylinder system, which is loaded with masses in order
to generate the individual test points.
The masses applied are proporƟonal to the target
pressure and this is achieved through opƟmally
graduated masses. As standard, these masses are
manufactured to the standard gravity (9.80665 m/s²),
though they can be adjusted to a specic locaƟon and
also UKAS (DKD/DAkkS) calibrated.
Stand-alone operaƟon
Due to ist integrated pressure generaƟon and the
pure mechanical measuring principle, the model
LR-Cal LDW-HK is ideal for on-site use for
maintenance and service.
