Low Pressure Transducer Calibration

Low Pressure Transducer
Low Pressure Transducer Calibration


The NIST Thermodynamic Metrology Group is planning a high-accuracy low-pressure transducer** calibration to begin April 16th, 2018. If you are interested in participating in this calibration, we require gauges and controllers, along with PO or credit card information, to arrive at NIST no later than April 16th, 2018.

The cost and calibration description is listed below.

Description (range): 0.1 Pa to 130 kPa

Each Transducer:       
Test #: SP250 30010C    
Cost: $3,013

Because space is limited on the calibration manifold, you will need to reserve space for the calibration before sending your equipment.  To reserve, please send an email to Jacob Ricker at jacob.ricker [at] nist.gov (jacob[dot]ricker[at]nist[dot]gov).

Turnaround time is 84 days or less from announced calibration start date.  If you have any questions or comments please contact Jacob Ricker, jacob.ricker [at] nist.gov (jacob[dot]ricker[at]nist[dot]gov) or 301-975-4475.
