Can’t find your specific question? Feel free to contact us. Our team will be happy to provide personal support on all topics relating to brake tester calibration, brake tester calibration services, and selecting the right calibration kit for your application.

Which types of calibration kits does Cartesy offer?

Cartesy offers a range of calibration kits for standards-compliant testing, including force sensor calibration kits with up to 20 kN for roller and plate brake testers, as well as pressure gauge calibration kits rated up to 25 bar for pressure sensors, pressure gauges, and wireless pressure transmitters. The portfolio is complemented by digital S-Force reference sensors with app connectivity, analogue pressure gauges with DAkkS-accredited calibration, and pedal force tester kits for mobile force measurement.

If you are unsure which calibration kit best suits your requirements, our team will be happy to advise you personally.

Which types of pressure testers are available?

Cartesy’s range includes classic Bourdon tube pressure gauges rated at 16 or 25 bar, as well as specialised pressure gauge calibration kits for pressure sensors and wireless pressure transmitters. These kits are supplied with matching accessories and adapters and, thanks to their high resolution, enable particularly precise calibration.

What are the calibration kits and pressure testers used for?

Cartesy calibration kits and pressure gauges are used to accurately calibrate roller and plate brake testers, reliably measure brake pressure during MOT and statutory inspections, and record pedal forces in a standards-compliant manner. In addition, they are suitable for the calibration of pressure sensors, wireless pressure transmitters, and other measuring instruments, ensuring that all relevant tests can be documented in a legally compliant way.

16 bar or 25 bar – which pressure ranges make sense?

A 16 bar pressure gauge is suitable for most standard brake pressure tests, as typically carried out on passenger cars and commercial vehicles during MOT and statutory inspections. A 25 bar pressure gauge is recommended when special requirements apply, for example in applications with particularly high pressure ranges where additional safety margins are required.

If you are unsure which pressure range is best suited to your application, our team will be happy to advise you.

How often should pressure testers and pressure gauges be calibrated?

Calibration intervals depend on the applicable legal requirements and standards, the area of use, frequency of operation, and individual quality requirements. For many applications, DAkkS-accredited calibration every two years is mandatory in order to use the measuring equipment for MOT or statutory inspections. In the event of repairs, mechanical damage, or noticeable deviations in measurement results, earlier calibration is also required.

How can I book calibration services for sensors and pressure testers?

Cartesy’s brake tester calibration services can be booked directly via the online shop or through an enquiry form. You simply provide the relevant equipment details and then coordinate the process with the accredited calibration laboratory. The service is available not only for Cartesy products, but also for measuring instruments from other manufacturers.
