Calibration of Pressure Gauges
Product Code : JA-FMAHLE-9979
The Calibration of Pressure Gauges apparatus (SKU JA-FMAHLE-9979) uses a piston manometer to generate known pressures for checking a Bourdon tube pressure gauge. The gauge has a transparent dial so that students can see the spring mechanism move. JaincoLab supplies this pressure gauge calibration set to engineering colleges and polytechnics for fluid mechanics and instrumentation practicals. The listing does not give the weight set or pressure range, which are confirmed on the quotation.
Specifications
The piston manometer has an accurately fitting piston and cylinder without seals, with a 25 mm by 225 mm hydraulic cylinder and a 12 mm pressure piston; hydraulic oil transfers the force, and a hydraulic pump with storage tank and bleed mechanism fills the system.

Applications of the pressure gauge calibration set
The pressure gauge calibration set shows how a known force on a piston of known area produces a reference pressure, and lets students compare it with the reading of a Bourdon tube gauge to draw a calibration curve, a standard practical in fluid mechanics and instrumentation.
- Calibrating a Bourdon tube pressure gauge against a piston manometer
- Plotting gauge error against reference pressure
- Demonstrating the working of a Bourdon tube through the transparent dial
- Fluid mechanics and instrumentation practicals in engineering colleges and polytechnics
