Information about keeping your instruments running accurately

Pressure Mounting? Ensuring Pressure Measuring Devices are Reading Correctly

Measuring the blood pressure in your body is an important indicator of your health. Similarly, assessing pressure in flow measurements and automatic control loops ensures that operating conditions are effective and efficient. Temperature, pressure, and flow are significant parameters for many process applications.

b2ap3_thumbnail_PressureCalibrations.gifFrom pressure gauges to transducers to manometers to pressure meters, many formats are available for measuring pressure. Common to all of them, though, is the need for calibration to ensure the accuracy of their readings. Many manufacturers miss or extend calibration intervals on pressure instruments. For example, with a large volume of pressure gauges in operation, some may be overlooked. This puts the quality of the product being manufactured—and perhaps the safety of the plant operation itself—at risk.

According to Fluke, pressure calibration is “the comparison of the output of a device used to measure pressure with that of another pressure measurement device, or pressure measurement standard. This usually involves plumbing the device under test to the standard device and generating a common pressure in the measurement circuit.”

To maintain the integrity of your pressure measurements, check calibration intervals for each device and arrange for regular calibrations.

InnoCal provides NIST-traceable calibration on nearly any pressure measuring or generating device--including pneumatic and hydraulic equipment. Our vast inventory of pressure calibrators allows us to test instruments in a shorter turnaround time. We respond whether you have one pressure calibrator or hundreds of pressure gauges or need on-site or off-site calibrations.
