Pressure Balance CPB3000

Description

 

Basic principle

Pressure is defined as the quotient of force and area (P = F/A). Correspondingly, the core of the CPB3000 is a very precisely manufactured piston cylinder system, which is loaded with masses in order to generate the individual test points.

The weights are manufactured to standard gravity (9.80665 m/s²) although, for fixed location usage, they can be adjusted to a customer specified local gravity.

Easy functioning

The pressure is set via an integrated, finely-adjustable, precision spindle pump. As soon as the measuring system reaches equilibrium, there is a balance of forces between pressure and mass applied. The excellent quality of the system ensures that this pressure remains stable over several minutes, so that the device under test can be calibrated or time-consuming adjustments can be carried out without any problems.

Compact and self-contained

In addition, the CPB3000 sets itself apart through its compact size with the space saving storage of the weight discs, directly on top of the instrument‘s base-plate. Due to the integrated pressure generation and the purely mechanical measuring principle, the CPB3000 is ideally suited to on-site use as well as service and maintenance purposes.
