Conclusions
-
1.
A master instrument has been developed, investigated, and certified for reproducing the unit of pressure in total and partial absolute pressure range of 10−3–10−11 Pa (total pressure) and 10−3–10−6 Pa (partial pressure).
-
2.
The apparatus consists of the following master devices; the GRAD cryogenic master device of second class; OIM master ionization pressure gauge of third class; the OGIP master device of third class for calibrating partial pressure gauges; and the ORU-2 master pressure reduction device of the second class.
-
3.
The characteristics of the instruments are given in Table 4.
-
4.
The limiting pressure obtained with the GRAD cryostatic device is (3–4)·10−11 Pa; it is the lowest pressure ever obtained in a device of this type.
