Pressure Gauge Instrument Information

Pressure gauges play a critical role in maintaining system integrity and safety across numerous industries, which is why they are a cornerstone of Fox Valley Metrology’s accredited calibration services. With close to everyday use, it’s common for pressure gauges to drift from their original calibration. Whether you are working with dial or digital pressure gauges, we offer ISO/IEC 17025 accredited calibration services with full NIST traceability, located conveniently near you.

Our calibration process for pressure gauges is designed to ensure precise readings across the full range of the instrument. While we accommodate specific measurement needs, our standard calibration process for pressure gauges includes inspections at a minimum of 5 points on both increasing and decreasing pressures:

Increasing Pressure: 20%, 40%, 60%, and 100% of the full pressure range
Decreasing Pressure: 80% and 50% of the full pressure range

What is a Pressure Gauge?

A pressure gauge is an instrument used to measure and display the pressure of a fluid (liquid or gas) within a system. It typically provides a visual indication, often in units like pounds per square inch (PSI), bars, or pascals (Pa).

Common Pressure Gauge Uses

Pressure gauges are widely used in various industries to measure and monitor pressure levels in gases, liquids, or vapors including:

Monitoring fluid pressure in hydraulic machinery to ensure safe and efficient operation
Measuring air pressure in compressors, air tools, and other pneumatic equipment
Monitoring pressure in pipelines, reactors, and storage tanks in industries like oil and gas, chemical processing, and power generation
Ensuring proper pressure in molding, casting, and extrusion equipment
Monitoring pressure in boilers, autoclaves, and other high-pressure systems
Measuring oil pressure, fuel pressure, and turbocharger pressure in vehicles
Monitoring vacuum pressure in scientific instruments
Monitoring hydraulic and pneumatic pressures in aircraft systems

Why is pressure gauge calibration necessary?

Pressure gage calibration is crucial because it ensures accurate pressure readings, which are essential for safety, efficiency, and compliance in many applications. Many industries, including oil & gas, manufacturing, and pharmaceuticals, require calibrated instruments to meet regulatory standards and certifications. Regular calibration ensures compliance with these requirements.

How often is pressure gauge calibration needed?

It depends on the type of pressure gauge, but the common recommendation calibration of pressure measuring instruments is once per year.

How do I know when pressure gauge calibration services might be needed?

Common indicators include physical wear or damage or inconsistent measurements. Pressure gauge calibration also is recommended after repairs or exposure to harsh conditions.

What is the process for calibrating a pressure gage?

Calibration involves comparing the gage’s readings against a reference standard across its full range to verify accuracy. This reference standard is typically a deadweight tester – which place calibrated weights on a piston, which exerts a precise downward force over a known area, generating a specific pressure. This pressure is applied to the gage being calibrated. If the pressure gage deviates against the known pressure value an adjustment would be needed.

Is your pressure gauge calibration traceable to national standards?

Yes. We provide NIST traceable pressure gauge calibrations on all calibrations.

What is the cost of pressure gage calibration?

Costs depend on factors specific to the pressure gage, such as the accuracy of the unit, its usable pressure range, gage type, and the calibration provider. It’s best to request a quote for an accurate estimate.

Can I calibrate a pressure gage myself?

DIY calibration is generally not recommended, as accurate calibration requires specialized equipment and trained personnel to ensure precise readings.

What are the risks of using an uncalibrated pressure gage?

An uncalibrated gage can lead to inaccurate pressure measurements, which may compromise safety, cause system malfunctions, or result in costly downtime.

What are signs that my pressure gage needs calibration?

Signs include inconsistent readings, damage to the gage, exposure to harsh environments, or significant changes in operating conditions.

What are signs that my pressure gage needs calibration?

Signs include inconsistent readings, damage to the gage, exposure to harsh environments, or significant changes in operating conditions.

Is your pressure gauge calibration ISO 17025 accredited?

Yes. We provide ISO 17025 accredited pressure gauge calibrations on all calibrations.

How long does pressure gage calibration take?

Our standard 3-5 day turnaround time is applicable for all pressure gage calibration services. Expedited calibration options are available.
