Automated Pressure Gauge Calibration System

The APP Automated Pressure Gauge Calibration System (APGCS) is designed for precise calibration and linearity testing of analog and mechanical pressure gauges. The system operates from atmospheric pressure up to 60,000 psi using pneumatic or hydraulic pressure generation.

Automated Pressure Gauge Calibration System

Overview

The APP Automated Pressure Gauge Calibration System (APGCS) is designed for precise calibration and linearity testing of analog and mechanical pressure gauges. The system operates from atmospheric pressure up to 60,000 psi using pneumatic or hydraulic pressure generation. Highly accurate master pressure transducers ensure precise calibration of up to nine gauges simultaneously. The system also supports cyclic pressure testing for fatigue and durability evaluation. The APGCS reduces calibration time, improves accuracy, and minimizes operational costs.

  • Up to three highly accurate pressure transducers monitor system pressure and provides feedback.
  • User-defined pressure steps, holding times, pressurization rates, and multiple target pressures.
  • Pressure cycling capability for fatigue and durability testing.
  • Tests can be performed under elevated temperature to simulate actual operating conditions (optional).
  • Multi-level, fail-safe system provides over-pressurization protection.
  • Windows-based software for automated control, data acquisition, and reporting.
  • Complete manual control is also possible.
  • Compatible with Windows ’98 and higher.
  • Real-time graphical test display depicts testing status and results throughout operation.
  • Multiple pressure generator systems for continuous and multi-axis pressurization (optional).
  • Customized report formats available.
  • Minimal maintenance required.
