Fluke P3116-KGCM2 Deadweight Tester

Overview

The Fluke P3116-KGCM2 is a single piston-cylinder deadweight tester designed for accurate pressure calibrations. It serves as a high-performance pressure standard using a precision piston-gauge system with certified accuracies traceable to the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). The instrument is part of the P3100 series, engineered to provide superior accuracy, reliability, and operational simplicity for calibrating pressure transducers, transmitters, gauges, and switches.
