Abstract

The pressure balances are used as reference standards to calibrate secondary manometers and other balances. There are different types and models of pressure balances that cover measuring ranges from 3 kPa to 1 GPa. The pressure balances are designed to measure relative, absolute or differential pressure and some balances can measure all types of pressure. This paper presents the results of a study of high accuracy pressure balances cross-floating calibration comparing trim masses on the standard balance or on the balance under calibration.
