The focal point of this thesis is concentrated on the study of the metrological characteristics of 290 MPa oil-operated controlled clearance pressure balance which uses a 3.27 mm nominal diameter piston and cylinder gauge. The gauge is surrounded by a jacket pressure operated through an external cylinder of pressure ranges from 0 to 40 % of system pressure using di-ethyl-hexyl-sebacate as a pressure transmitting fluid UR - http://172.23.153.220/th.pdf ER -
