For the organizations that are willing to improvise on their quality control for different processes which includes pressure management, then the in-house pressure calibration could be a low cost option compared to the external calibration laboratories.

Pressure Calibration equipment can be divided into two wide categories, firstly those who use fundamental measurement like deadweight testers as well as liquid column manometers, and the secondary measuring instruments such as pressure sensors. Where pressure sensors are concerned most have exploited the materials elastic behavior.

For more than 15 years now WIKA has attributed DKD which is a German calibration service for temperature and pressure and also for various other similar national laboratories in the world like the NATA lab located in Australia etc. It is because of this recognition that assures the customer-orientated know-how as well as test instruments/equipments, proved through practice, in the WIKA calibration technology.

In this field of the calibration technology where pressure measurement is done, WIKA is gaining importance at a rise. The company, WIKA, has today enhanced its reputation in the market internationally by acquiring one of United States established company namely “Mensor Corporation” (which was basically into precision pressure controllers) and parallel to this has intensified their service provision. The pressure calibration industry itself has now put their emphasis on developing this by arranging for a vital appointment: This pressure technical committee of DKD has chosen Christian Elbert from WIKA as its chairman.

The pressure Technical Committee has represented the 53 DKD (the German Calibration service) associated laboratories from within the industry, public and research authorities. WIKA is considered the largest one to operate these facilities in Germany. Each and every year there are several thousands of calibration devices being tested for customers in their Klingenberg laboratory in Germany, along with various calibrators from the other manufacturer.

The Calibration certificates received from the DKD (the German Calibration service) laboratories guarantee adherence towards national standards. Christian Elbert, who is the chairman of this committee emphasizes that their company assures the safety required for the user. Christian Elbert manages the Business & technology Department in the WIKA’s Calibration Technology division. Additionally the Pressure Technical committee also supports the efforts for world-wide acknowledgement of the DKD certificates.

In addition to developing the measurement technology as well as discussing the various guidelines that are derived from them, the Pressure Technical committee also aids in strengthening the cost-efficient organization of these laboratories.
