BUDENBERG Dead Weight Testers & Accessories

Budenberg is a world leader when it comes to Dead Weight Testers, you can view our range of Hydraulic and pneumatic Dead Weight testers in dual/single ranges, industrial, portable, and their accessories.

A dead weight tester is a device that is used to measure pressure by comparing the force of a known mass against a known area. It works by placing a known weight on a piston, which is then placed in a container filled with fluid. The pressure of the fluid is then measured and compared to the weight of the piston, allowing for accurate measurement of pressure.

What is a Dead Weight Tester?

A dead weight tester is a device that is used to measure the tensile or compressive strength of materials. It consists of a load cell, which is a device that measures the force, and a dead weight, which is a calibrated weight. The load cell is connected to a display or recorder, which shows the force applied to the material.

To use a dead weight tester, the material to be tested is placed between the load cell and the dead weight. The load cell is then zeroed, and the dead weight is applied. The force applied to the material is then displayed or recorded.

Dead weight testers are used in a variety of industries, including the construction, aerospace, and automotive industries. They are also used in research and development to test the strength of new materials.

Some of the advantages of using a dead weight tester:

  • It is a very accurate method of measuring tensile or compressive strength.
  • It is a versatile tool that can be used to test a wide variety of materials.
  • It is a reliable and durable instrument.
