Product Description
The Ashcroft 1305D is an affordable, portable primary pressure standard specifically designed for precise calibration of industrial service gauges and transducers. Accurate to 0.1% of reading, the 1305D is carefully calibrated and certified traceable to NIST .
This dual-range system provides "high" and "low" pressure piston assemblies with a complete set of weights labeled with corresponding pressure values. A 2-speed lever-action hydraulic pump achieves pressures up to 10,000 psi. A shuttle valve allows selection between two rates of pressure generation, reducing effort at higher pressures. A secondary micro-adjust vernier displacement valve enables fine-tuning of pressure output to specific calibration points .
The standard 1305D pump operates with SAE 20 weight petroleum-based oil. For glycol or phosphate ester-based fluids, the 1305DH version features special seals. All components are stored in a rugged metal tool box for protection and portability. NIST traceable calibration certificate included .
