Pressure and vacuum

We calibrate all types of pressure and vacuum instruments, guaranteeing the necessary traceability. Accurate instruments and sensors are essential for safety, as well as for time and cost savings.

Calibration of pressure-measuring instruments is essential in order to meet various safety requirements, whether legal or purely personal.  In addition, there are substantial cost savings to be made in such ways as saving pumping times or by quickly detecting leaks. 

The traceability chain

SP possesses the entire chain of traceability as required by modern quality systems for the calibration of measuring instruments.  We can calibrate everything from vacuum to very high pressures, with varying levels of accuracy as required. 

Our pressure balances and primary systems for vacuum are at the top of the traceability chain, and are used for the most accurate measurements. 

For less demanding accuracy requirements

We also use appropriate methods and equipment for calibration of less demanding pressure-measuring equipment such as ordinary analogue or digital pressure gauges.
