Transfer Standards and Pressure Controllers

A comprehensive range of transfer standards and pressure controllers are operated in the laboratory for greater efficiency in less demanding calibrations. The transfer standards all utilise Quartz Pressure Sensitive Elements, an example as shown opposite. These have excellent characteristics of low hysteresis, good repeatability and stability.
