Abstract

The crossfloat (CF) method is well-known for its accurate and reliable results, however the difficulty on performing CF method arises when dealing with insensitive piston of calibrated DWT. In contrary, automatic transducer assisted crossfloat (TAC) method could be implemented since it does not affected by this condition as it advantages. The used of TAC method could avoid up to 0.008% relative error of effective area at zero pressure and at 20 °C (A0,20) and twice higher error distortion coefficient (b) in case of calibrating insensitive piston of DWT. In addition, the TAC method has another advantage that is save time with consistent result because it can be performed automatically. Once should be consider when using TAC method is the accuracy of pressure transducer. In this case study, the existing pressure transducer owned by RCM – LIPI, could be utilized to perform automatic TAC method in lower pressure range down to 2 MPa that below 10% of its maximum scale, to calibrate low accuracy DWT greater than 0.08%.

Abstract

DKD-R 6-1 is a widely used reference document in pressure measuring device (PMD) calibration. However, many of the users do not understand exactly the substance of it. As for example the pressure adjustment during the calibration is based on the reference (STD) reading or the unit under test (UUT) reading, according to the DKD-R 6-1 clause 7 Calibration Method. Therefore, in this research, calibration of barometer as one of PMD, from range 850 hPa to 1050 hPa has been performed to analyze the influence of those two methods to the calibration results and the difficulty or ease in measurement process. The result shows that both methods has different correction of 0,01 hPa, relevant with the uncertainty claim of 0,06 hPa at 850 hPa and 0,05 hPa at 1050 hPa respectively. Measurement by pressure adjustment according to the UUT reading is easier to be performed since UUT has less digit resolution than the reference standard. However, the reading stability of the reference standard needs to be taken into account since it has more digit resolution, in order to get more accurate measurement results. Keywords : barometer, pressure adjustment, DKD-R 6-1, reference standard, UUT
