Vacuum Gauge / Vacuum Indicator

1.0 Scope

This procedure provides guidelines for calibration of Vacuum Gauge / Vacuum Indicator
(Digital).

2.0 Standard Equipment

2.1 Low Pressure Calibrator with a valid certificate of calibration traceable to international
standard in accordance with an industrial code or a regulation shall be used as a
standard for calibration.
2.2 The reference standard shall be kept under controlled environmental conditions e.g. dust
free environment and Lab. temperature 22°C ± 3°C. Lab Humidity 60%RH ± 20%RH.

3.0 Preliminary Operations

3.1 The details of Vacuum Gauge / Vacuum Indicator (Digital) received for calibration shall
be entered in the Calibration Job Form (Form: Call/001).
3.2 It shall be ensured that the sensing port of Vacuum Gauge / Vacuum Indicator (Digital) is
not blocked.
3.3 The Vacuum Gauge / Vacuum Indicator (Digital) shall be inspected and marked () in
relevant block of equipment's primary inspection section of Calibration Data Sheet
(Form: Call/013).

4.0 Calibration Procedure

4.1 The Vacuum Gauge / Vacuum Indicator (Digital) to be calibrated shall be maintained at
same place of standard (Low Pressure Calibrator) for 06 hours minimum.
4.2 Vacuum Gauge / Vacuum Indicator (Digital) shall be exercised 2 to 3 times to full range.
4.3 Vacuum Gauge (Analog) shall be taped lightly while recording the readings to minimize
friction error.
4.4 The Vacuum Gauge / Vacuum Indicator (Digital) shall be checked at approximately 20%,
40%, 60% and 80% of full range.
4.5 The relevant section of Calibration Data Sheet (Form: Call/013) shall be marked.

4.6 The readings of Vacuum Gauge / Vacuum Indicator (Digital) shall be recorded in
measured value column against the standard readings in set value column of Calibration
Data Sheet (Form: Call/013).
4.7 Calibration Certificate (Form: Call/002) shall be issued for calibrated Vacuum Gauge /
Vacuum Indicator (Digital) as per Calibration Data Sheet Record (Form: Call/013).
4.8 A Calibration Sticker (Form: Call/003) containing following information shall be affixed
on the calibrated Vacuum Gauge / Vacuum Indicator (Digital).
a) Item code
b) Calibrated on
c) Next calibration date
