CALIBRATION AND MAINTENANCE OF THE BURST TESTER

• The burst tester is commonly used when performing bursting strength tests on paper, paperboard, linerboard, corrugated board and solid fiberboard.
• The burst tester consists of the following:
• A means of clamping the test specimen between two annular surfaces.
• A molded diaphragm.
• A means of forcing liquid into the pressure chamber directly below the diaphragm.
• A gauge or pressure transducer system capable of reading bursting pressure.
• This TIP does not discuss calibration procedures for the pressure gauges or transducers used with the burst tester .
