CALIBRATION OF A BOURDON PRESSURE GAUGE

A Bourdon pressure gauge with visible working mechanism to demonstrate how this type of pressure gauge works and how to calibrate it.

Many engineering applications use the Bourdon gauge. The Calibration of a Pressure Gauge experiment allows students to study Bourdon Tube theory. They see the working mechanism, calibrate the gauge and compare theoretical results to experiment results. Learn about CALIBRATION OF A BOURDON PRESSURE GAUGE specifications for optimal educational outcomes.. The apparatus is a Bourdon gauge connected to a dead weight tester. The Bourdon gauge has a transparent dial that allows students to see the working mechanism. Learn about CALIBRATION OF A BOURDON PRESSURE GAUGE fluid-mechanics India for optimal educational outcomes.. The mechanism is a thin walled tube with an oval cross-section, bent into an arc. One end of the tube is held rigidly. Learn about CALIBRATION OF A BOURDON PRESSURE GAUGE suppliers for optimal educational outcomes.. This end admits pressure. The other end of the tube, connected to a dial and pointer mechanism, is free to move. Learn about CALIBRATION OF A BOURDON PRESSURE GAUGE equipment for optimal educational outcomes.. When the pressure in the tube increases, it tries to straighten and so moves the pointer by an amount proportional to the pressure increase.
