INTRODUCTION
Calibrated pressure gauges are to be used for pressure testing to ensure the correctness of the
applied pressure. The Calibration of pressure gauges is one of the critical process and need to
be controlled to ensure the proper calibration of the gauges.
2.
PURPOSE
The purpose of this work instruction is to provide step by step instruction for the calibration of
Pressure Gauges.
3.
SCOPE
The scope of this work instruction is limited to the calibration of pressure gauges with
calibrated dead weight tester and used for the pressure testing of piping and equipments.
