With the purpose of achieving the best metrology characteristics of devices supplied and providing the uniformity of measurements on the production site territory, the 1st rank gas volume flow rate unit working standard and the secondary volume and mass fluid flow rate working standard have been put into operation and certified. The metrology service specialists carry out active work on the accreditation area expansion and are now ready to provide services on primary/periodic calibration of mass, ultrasound and electromagnetic Flow meters.
The released measurement devices pass performance tests in complex environmental conditions with the help of a high-precision climatic chamber.
