10.5 Setup
The following illustration shows a typical setup for either local or remote calibration for an absolute or
gauge pressure instrument. The PC is required only for performing a remote calibration.
The “Pressure Standard” is normally a deadweight test instrument, and the “Volume Controller” refers to
a hand operated variable-volume pressure vernier device. A diaphragm type vacuum gauge is recom-
mended over the gauge tube type of vacuum sensor for calibrating sub-atmospheric pressures. A vacu-
um pump with the capacity to generate 600 mTorr absolute is recommended.
