OPERATING THE DEADWEIGHT TESTER

5.1 Preparation



Place the instrument on a firm level base.



Check if the bubble level is in the center; if not, level the instrument with the 4 adjustable feet.

5.2 Pressure Transforming Media



< 25MPa: Mineral Oil (Miglyol 812 Noil or equivalent oil with viscosity grade VG22)



≥ 25MPa: Sebacate Oil

5.3 Operation

1.

Turn fine control screw press counter-clockwise till end of its stroke, open vent valve (oil drain valve).

2.

Unscrew quick connector plug, screw the device under tester (DUT), opens cut-off valve.

3.

Calculate the weight’s pressure and related quantities.
