We describe a calibration device for absolute pressure ranging from 5 kPa to 130 kPa whose relative uncertainty contribution (k = 1), including stability, repeatability and linearity is better than 1 Pa. The device is composed of a capacitance diaphragm gauge (CDG) and a resonant silicon gauge (RSG). The good long-term stability of the calibration slope of the RSG disseminated to the CDG which in turn allows one to master the offset of the RSG, is the reason for such a low uncertainty contribution. The metrological characterisation of this working standard is presented.
Key words: absolute pressure / calibration / working standard / capacitance diaphragm gauge / resonant silicon gauge
