THE PROBLEM
Introduction
Industrial Automation is a discipline that includes knowledge and expertise from various branches of engineering including electrical, electronics, chemical, mechanical, communications and more recently computer and software engineering. Automation and control by its very nature demands a cross fertilization of these faculties, a vast and diverse discipline that encompasses machinery, electronics, software, and information systems working together toward a goal. Industries around the world are in the need to make sure process variable measurements such as pressure, temperature level and flow are precise and accurate. It is a fact that are subject to different environmental conditions, such as pressure, heat, dust, radiation, and many more factors that affect its performance this cause the instrument to have drifts making them not absolutely stable at all times. Calibration is the process of comparing measurements. Measurements are taken on two devices the first measurement being that of a known correctness and the second one being a similar measurement, on another device. The device holding the known correctness is referred to as the standard. The second device is commonly known as the test unit, unit under test, test instrument, or any other name given to the device that is being calibrated.
Pressure gauges are used for a variety of industrial and application specific pressure monitoring applications. Uses include visual monitoring of air and gas pressure for compressors, vacuum equipment,
