The europascal BH5-10000B High Pressure Deadweight Tester is an exceptional hydraulic primary pressure standard designed for precise calibration at extremely high pressures from 200 to 10,000 bar. Developed by AREMECA for demanding high-pressure metrology, the BH5-10000B combines an extraordinary pressure range with a compact design and a manageable weight set.
With a maximum pressure of 10,000 bar (1 GPa), the europascal BH5-10000B is designed for calibration applications far beyond the pressure capability of conventional deadweight testers. Despite this extreme pressure range, approximately 50 kg of calibration masses are sufficient to generate pressures up to 10,000 bar.
The BH5-10000B provides an accuracy of 0.05 % of reading and uses a single precision piston-cylinder system. Both the piston and cylinder are manufactured from tungsten carbide, providing the hardness, dimensional stability and mechanical properties required for extremely high-pressure operation.
The pressure medium is oil, making the BH5-10000B a hydraulic deadweight tester. The instrument itself weighs approximately 35 kg without the calibration masses.
This combination of extreme pressure capability, compact dimensions and a physical pressure generation principle makes the BH5-10000B particularly suitable for national metrology institutes, professional calibration laboratories, sensor manufacturers, automotive applications, research facilities and other organizations requiring traceable pressure calibration up to 10,000 bar.
europascal provides professional support for pressure calibration equipment as well as calibration services. The europascal calibration service provides solutions for pressure standards, pressure gauges, sensors, transmitters and other pressure measuring instruments.
