Pressure Calibration

Pressure calibration entails comparing a pressure measuring device's output with a primary pressure measurement standard. Typically, the device under test (DUT) is connected to the standard device to create a consistent pressure. Their outputs are compared across various pressures, covering the DUT's full scale range or its typical operating range. The goal is to ensure accuracy and compliance with established standards for pressure measurements. 

At Dixon Engineering, we calibrate pressure gauges and related equipment from Absolute Vacuum to 60000psi. This is the highest range in the region and only a handful of UK calibration laboratories can reach this level.  Budenberg Deadweight Testers are the gold standard when it comes to pressure calibration and we operate several of them.

Pressure testing differs from pressure calibration in that there is no standard against which the device under test (DUT) is compared - the item either passes or fails. Our high-pressure hyperbaric test chambers thoroughly assess products designed to withstand pressures exceeding atmospheric levels, particularly in offshore, subsea and other high-pressure applications. Using these specialised chambers, we undertake rigorous qualification testing, crucial for validating durability before deployment in the field. Our chambers feature pressure and temperature control systems, enabling tailored test cycles according to customer specifications and industry standards, including pressure cycling and ramping. Our dedicated engineering team capture essential information throughout the test and relay this back to the customer alongside certfication, guaranteeing the highest safety standards and successful testing outcomes for our customers. Outlined in more detail below, we offer a variety of pressure testing options: hyperbaric,  destructive and hydrostatic.
