Leading European temperature company now UKAS-accredited
16 June 2004
News
Hart Scientific, a division of Fluke, has gained UKAS (United Kingdom Accreditation System) accreditation for its new European primary standards temperature laboratory in Norwich, UK. The laboratory now offers a comprehensive range of traceable calibrations and metrology services.
The laboratory has the capacity to provide both UKAS-accredited and traceable calibration services to producers and users of precision temperature measurement equipment throughout greater Europe, the Middle East and Africa. Customers include organisations with high-end temperature measurement instruments that require calibration and verification to ITS-90 standards, the international temperature scale established in 1990.
The laboratory is equipped with standards and calibration equipment capable of temperature measurement from -200°C up to 1000°C, with uncertainties as low as 0,00007°C. The company says that such a high level of measurement accuracy is required in primary and secondary laboratories, as well as a growing number of manufacturing companies that rely on precise temperature controls for manufacturing processes.
The lab uses a wide range of Hart Scientific equipment such as ITS-90 fixed-point cells, maintenance furnaces, standard platinum resistance thermometers (SPRTs), thermometer readouts and fluid baths, as well as using electrical standards supplied by Fluke.
