The calibrator consists of two Type 5015 charge amplifiers and a data acquisition system, packaged together with Kistler's Calibrate TM calibration software suite. It forms the backbone of calibration systems for piezoelectric pressure and force sensors.
Application
Calibration systems built around the Type 5959A... are used in all areas where piezoelectric sensors need to be calibrated on-site or in a customer-site calibration laboratory.
Such a calibration system typically consists of the calibrator, a pressure (or force) generator, a reference sensor and the Unit Under Test (UUT) i.e. the sensor to be calibrated. An example of such a system is shown in Fig. 1, which depicts a calibration system for piezoelectric pressure sensors with a Type 5959A... Calibrator in combination with a Type 6904A1 pressure generator and a reference sensor Type 6961A... .
