Pressure calibration is a vital aspect to maintaining a variety of devices that are used during pressure testing. Calibration hand pumps help with this process.
What Are Calibration Hand Pumps?
Calibration hand pumps are used to complete pressure testing in mechanical or electronic pressure testers, ensuring accurate and precise analysis capabilities. These handheld and hand-operated pressure pumps are often pneumatic or hydraulic. Calibration hand pumps can be used in labs, workshops, or other facilities. They are also easy to transport and use out in the field.
How To Use A Calibration Hand Pump
- Set up your calibration hand pump
- Make sure the pressure gauge is mounted correctly
- Mount the reference pressure gauge (vertically)
- Depending on the test, assess the pressure and adjust
- Adjust the source pressure as needed
- Stop once the test subject reaches a nominal pressure
- Record and log your analysis as needed

How Does A Calibration Pump Work?
A calibration hand pump allows technicians to generate pressure which can then be used to test measuring devices. Once these instruments are tested, an operator can adjust and calibrate as needed. These devices work for operators that are looking for pneumatic, hydraulic, vacuum, in-field, and benchtop pressure testing.
