1.1 Pressure is a physical quantity. Physical quantities describe measurable features of bodies
or process related to them.
1.2 The SI unit (international system of units) of pressure P is the Pascal (Pa)
1Pa = 1N/m2
1.4.1 Calibration
The purpose of a measurement system is to accurately measure the state of the unit under test.
Measurements are accomplished by using a transducer to convert energy from some given form
(such as force, displacement, or acceleration measurements) to an electrical signal that is
conditioned for input to a data collection device.
The transducer usually comes with a transfer (function) characteristic or sensitivity. The signal
conditioner can be set up to receive a signal with a known input type and range and to convert that
signal to a standard required by the data collection unit.
1.4.2 Practical Lab Using Druck DPI 615 pressure calibration
Basic steps:
Hint:
*For switches use dead test with the multimeter connected across the device to check when it opens for NC switches or closes for
NO switches.
**For transducers use live test with the meter set to current and connected in parallel through the draining leg of the device to the
meter.
