Answer ( Option C)

Solution

●A dead weight tester (also called a piston pressure gage or pressure balance) is used widely for calibration of other equipment.

●It is a kind of an absolute instrument which provides a known force by means of standard weights.

●Unknown weights are put to the weight stand (which is reference weight to be calibrated) and further pressure is applied by moving adjustable ram, when applied pressure and reference weight is equal, at this condition reference weight will be zero (or dead). Therefore, it is called Dead Weight Tester (DWT).

Hence, the correct option is (C).
