Aim of this experiment :
Calibrating the bourdon gauge. which is used to measure gauge Pressure.
introduction
The deadweight piston gauge (Bell and Howell) is used is to measure pressure in terms of
fundamental units - force and area. A piston is inserted into a close fitting cylinder. Weights are
placed on one end of the piston and are supported by fluid pressure applied to the other end. For
absolute pressure measurements the assembly is placed inside an evacuated bell jar. Pressure
measurements take into account a number of parameters affecting the instrument and its
environment.
The pressure is applied via weights which are placed on a weight support. The latter has a piston
which acts on hydraulic oil in a pipe system, so that a manometer which is also connected to the
system should indicate certain pressures. The device contains a Bourdon spring manometer with
a transparent dial. The display mechanism and the various adjustment opportunities are therefore
clearly identifiable. Hydraulic oil is used to transfer pressure.
Figure-1: Layout HM 150.02
Instructions :
1. Bourdon tube pressure gauge for pressure measurement
2. transparent dial face with a view of the spring mechanism
3. accurately fitting piston and cylinder of the piston manometer without seals
4. hydraulic oil for transfer of the force hydraulic pump with storage tank and bleed
mechanism The device for calibrating pressure gauges
4
essentially consists of two units:
1. The pressure gauge unit This is where the manometer to be calibrated is screwed in
2. The load unit The load unit consists of several weights and a cylinder with a piston. An
increase in the load results in an increase in pressure. The load unit is connected to the pressure
gauge unit via an oil-filled line, enabling the manometer to display the increase in pressure.
The following sectional drawing shows how the load unit and pressure gauge unit are connected:
Figure-4: Hydraulic connections.
both units are connected by means of a pipeline. When the support is loaded with weights, the oil
pressure in the system increases. The seal between the piston and the cylinder is metallic, with no
other sealing elements. The fit has been very carefully designed to ensure that the piston operates
almost entirely without friction, and with minimal oil leakage.
The weights are designed in such a way that pressure increments of 0,5bar are possible. Place
the small weight on the weight support first. A guide pin is provided for this purpose. The other
weights would lie askew on the plunger, and would corrupt the measurements due to different
levels of friction.
The unit is also equipped with a drain and filling plug in order to drain or fill the oil. The
compensation cylinder can be used to raise and lower the weight load on the oil cushion of the
hydraulic oil. For the measurements, the load must be kept on the oil cushion so that the pressure
is applied in the hydraulic system. After unscrewing the pressure relief knob, the weight load can
5
be brought down until it is supported. The hydraulic is then relieved of the load. In addition, the
compensation cylinder can be used to easily check the oil level and top it up if required.
NOTICE : Do not replace the pressure gauge. Oil can only be refilled using a vacuum.
Remove and Insert Transport Cap
The transport cap is held in the cylinder by an O-ring, not by a thread.
Figure-6: Remove transport cap:
• Push the compensation cylinder hand lever until the pressure increases. Hold the transport cap
securely and push the hand lever further until the transport cap is loose and can be removed.
NOTICE : Pressurized oil may squirt out of the opening.
Insert transport cap:
• Place transport cap in place. • Unscrew the pressure relief knob then press on the transport cap.
Screw the pressure relief knob back in.
Procedure:
• If necessary, top up oil and check zero balance. Push the hand lever down until the cylinder is
filled up to the brim. Insert the piston.
Zero Balance To check the zero point of the manometer, proceed as follows:
• Push the hand lever down so that the piston is pushed out of the cylinder. Remove the piston
and weight support. Adjust the oil level in the open cylinder until the cylinder is filled up to the
edge.
6
Figure-7: Insert transport cap.
• The manometer being tested should now indicate zero, as it is only subject to ambient pressure.
If this is not the case, the pointer on the pressure gauge can be adjusted with a small screwdriver.
For this, remove the front glass by turning the front ring.
NOTICE : The transparent dial of the spring-tube pressure gauge are made of glass and can
break.
Figure-8: Oil level (A).
Topping up the Hydraulic Oil If despite repeatedly operating the hand lever the oil does not
reach the brim of the cylinder, the oil must be topped up.
For this purpose, proceed as follows:
1. remove the piston with a weight support.
2. Pull hand lever to its highest position
3. Unscrew pressure relief knob
4. Top up oil to the first ledge
5. Fit piston with weight support
7
6. Push down piston with weight support
7. Screw in pressure relief knob
8. Perform zero balance in accordance with
Changing the Oil
Remove the drain and filling plug .Drain the old oil, bleed if necessary. Make an additional
screwed connection between the three-way valve and vacuum pump. NOTICE : A vacuum
pump and a three-way valve are not included in the content of supply. Open the three-way valve
so that the vacuum pump generates a vacuum. Reverse the three-way valve to allow oil into the
system. Then shut off the hydraulic system. NOTICE: Do not replace the pressure gauge. Oil
can only be refilled using a vacuum.

Preparation of Experiment
Remove the transport cap. Top up with oil if necessary and check the zero signal.
Performing the Experiment
Read off the zero signal on the pressure gauge, check it and make a note of it. Set the weight carrier to
0,334bar by inserting the piston in the load unit cylinder. To do this: 1. Unscrew pressure relief knob 2.
Press down weight support 3. Screw in pressure relief knob. Press down the hand lever, thereby slowly
lifting the piston with weight support until it just floats on the oil with sufficient guidance. To avoid
sticking due to static friction, gently twist the weight carrier as it sinks. Note the pressure signal on the
pressure gauge. Place the load ring for 0,166bar on the weight carrier. When so doing, make sure that the
weight carrier floats freely on the oil. To minimize sticking due to static friction whilst performing this
measurement, gently twist the weight carrier. Note the pressure signal on the pressure gauge. Add each of
the other four load rings for 0,5bar in turn, repeating the action described above and noting the pressure
values.

  • 3. 3 Aim of this experiment : Calibrating the bourdon gauge. which is used to measure gauge Pressure. introduction The deadweight piston gauge (Bell and Howell) is used is to measure pressure in terms of fundamental units - force and area. A piston is inserted into a close fitting cylinder. Weights are placed on one end of the piston and are supported by fluid pressure applied to the other end. For absolute pressure measurements the assembly is placed inside an evacuated bell jar. Pressure measurements take into account a number of parameters affecting the instrument and its environment. The pressure is applied via weights which are placed on a weight support. The latter has a piston which acts on hydraulic oil in a pipe system, so that a manometer which is also connected to the system should indicate certain pressures. The device contains a Bourdon spring manometer with a transparent dial. The display mechanism and the various adjustment opportunities are therefore clearly identifiable. Hydraulic oil is used to transfer pressure. Figure-1: Layout HM 150.02 Instructions : 1. Bourdon tube pressure gauge for pressure measurement 2. transparent dial face with a view of the spring mechanism 3. accurately fitting piston and cylinder of the piston manometer without seals 4. hydraulic oil for transfer of the force hydraulic pump with storage tank and bleed mechanism The device for calibrating pressure gauges
  • 4. 4 essentially consists of two units: 1. The pressure gauge unit This is where the manometer to be calibrated is screwed in 2. The load unit The load unit consists of several weights and a cylinder with a piston. An increase in the load results in an increase in pressure. The load unit is connected to the pressure gauge unit via an oil-filled line, enabling the manometer to display the increase in pressure. The following sectional drawing shows how the load unit and pressure gauge unit are connected: Figure-4: Hydraulic connections. both units are connected by means of a pipeline. When the support is loaded with weights, the oil pressure in the system increases. The seal between the piston and the cylinder is metallic, with no other sealing elements. The fit has been very carefully designed to ensure that the piston operates almost entirely without friction, and with minimal oil leakage. The weights are designed in such a way that pressure increments of 0,5bar are possible. Place the small weight on the weight support first. A guide pin is provided for this purpose. The other weights would lie askew on the plunger, and would corrupt the measurements due to different levels of friction. The unit is also equipped with a drain and filling plug in order to drain or fill the oil. The compensation cylinder can be used to raise and lower the weight load on the oil cushion of the hydraulic oil. For the measurements, the load must be kept on the oil cushion so that the pressure is applied in the hydraulic system. After unscrewing the pressure relief knob, the weight load can

NOTICE : Do not replace the pressure gauge. Oil can only be refilled using a vacuum. Remove and Insert Transport Cap The transport cap is held in the cylinder by an O-ring, not by a thread. Figure-6: Remove transport cap: • Push the compensation cylinder hand lever until the pressure increases. Hold the transport cap securely and push the hand lever further until the transport cap is loose and can be removed. NOTICE : Pressurized oil may squirt out of the opening. Insert transport cap: • Place transport cap in place. • Unscrew the pressure relief knob then press on the transport cap. Screw the pressure relief knob back in. Procedure: • If necessary, top up oil and check zero balance. Push the hand lever down until the cylinder is filled up to the brim. Insert the piston. Zero Balance To check the zero point of the manometer, proceed as follows: • Push the hand lever down so that the piston is pushed out of the cylinder. Remove the piston and weight support. Adjust the oil level in the open cylinder until the cylinder is filled up to the edge.
  • 6. 6 Figure-7: Insert transport cap. • The manometer being tested should now indicate zero, as it is only subject to ambient pressure. If this is not the case, the pointer on the pressure gauge can be adjusted with a small screwdriver. For this, remove the front glass by turning the front ring. NOTICE : The transparent dial of the spring-tube pressure gauge are made of glass and can break. Figure-8: Oil level (A). Topping up the Hydraulic Oil If despite repeatedly operating the hand lever the oil does not reach the brim of the cylinder, the oil must be topped up. For this purpose, proceed as follows: 1. remove the piston with a weight support. 2. Pull hand lever to its highest position 3. Unscrew pressure relief knob 4. Top up oil to the first ledge 5. Fit piston with weight support

Perform zero balance in accordance with Changing the Oil Remove the drain and filling plug .Drain the old oil, bleed if necessary. Make an additional screwed connection between the three-way valve and vacuum pump. NOTICE : A vacuum pump and a three-way valve are not included in the content of supply. Open the three-way valve so that the vacuum pump generates a vacuum. Reverse the three-way valve to allow oil into the system. Then shut off the hydraulic system. NOTICE: Do not replace the pressure gauge. Oil can only be refilled using a vacuum. Figure-9: changing oil level. Theory: p : Pressure m : Mass of load unit g : Gravity constant
  • 8. 8 Preparation of Experiment Remove the transport cap. Top up with oil if necessary and check the zero signal. Performing the Experiment Read off the zero signal on the pressure gauge, check it and make a note of it. Set the weight carrier to 0,334bar by inserting the piston in the load unit cylinder. To do this: 1. Unscrew pressure relief knob 2. Press down weight support 3. Screw in pressure relief knob. Press down the hand lever, thereby slowly lifting the piston with weight support until it just floats on the oil with sufficient guidance. To avoid sticking due to static friction, gently twist the weight carrier as it sinks. Note the pressure signal on the pressure gauge. Place the load ring for 0,166bar on the weight carrier. When so doing, make sure that the weight carrier floats freely on the oil. To minimize sticking due to static friction whilst performing this measurement, gently twist the weight carrier. Note the pressure signal on the pressure gauge. Add each of the other four load rings for 0,5bar in turn, repeating the action described above and noting the pressure values.
