Acceleration Level (rms)¹:
10.0 g (98.1 m/s²)²
¹The acceleration level may be limited by shaker displacement at low frequencies. If the listed level cannot be obtained, the calibration system uses the following formula to set the vibration amplitude; Acceleration Level (g) =
0.010 x (freq)². ²The gravitational constant used for calculations by the calibration system is; 1 g = 9.80665 m/s².

Highlights
■ Traceable to NIST and PTB laboratories
■ Dynamic and static calibration capabilities
■ Sensor performance evaluation testing
■ ISO 9001:2000 certified
■ ISO 17025 accredited by A2LA for most services
■ The industry’s most comprehensive capabilities
PCB ® Piezotronics provides some of the most comprehensive
calibration and testing services in the industry. Considerable
investment in equipment, coupled with conformance to industry
and ISO 9001 standards, ensures that PCB ® sensors will perform
in accordance with their specifications. Calibration services are
also available for other manufacturer’s sensors.
A complete sensor calibration encompasses sensitivity, linearity,
and, where applicable, its frequency response determination.
In addition, evaluation of a sensor’s performance for the various
environments in which it will operate is desirable. PCB ®
provides all of these services.

Dynamic Pressure Sensor Calibration Services
Pneumatic Pulse Calibrator - Model 903B02
A manually actuated poppet valve exposes the sensor under test
(installed in a small volume manifold) to the step reference pressure,
which is contained and regulated within a much larger storage cavity.
Pneumatic Pulse Method (low pressure)
■ Strain gage pressure sensor reference
■ Manually-actuated poppet valve
■ 5 millisecond rise time (nominal)
■ 0 to 150 psi (0 to 1 MPa) range
