Temperature Calibration: Endress + Hauser South Africa boasts lowest uncertainty of measurement other labs( that is, at 0 ° C ± 0,008 K /° C).
Process automation specialist, Endress + Hauser South Africa ' s Temperature Calibration“ �is is due to the ultramodern technology Laboratory utilises only the highest precision used, which is of highest precision and is and state-of-the-art equipment, resulting in it mirrored on other Endress + Hauser factories in achieving a SANAS accolade as one of the highest performing temperature calibration Europe,” points out Benjamin Mlangeni, laboratories in South Africa. product manager for Temperature System C o m p o n e n t s & R e g i s t r a t i o n a t
�e most basic criterion when it comes to
Endress + Hauser South Africa. temperature calibration is to always use a reference sensor that is of higher accuracy than To ensure that it continuously offers the lowest the device to be calibrated. uncertainty of measurements, the South African facility not only conducts interlaboratory comparisons( ILCs) with other local
Endress + Hauser ' s Temperature Calibration Laboratory, located in Apex, an industrial area labs, but also performs an annual ILC with two in Benoni, has been named as one of the highest European laboratories situated in Germany and performing temperature calibration laboratory Italy. �e latter proves its traceability at a global in the country, boasting some of the lowest level. uncertainty of measurement when compared to �e Endress + Hauser lab is accredited in accordance with the recognised International Standard ISO / IEC 17025:2005 to calibrate instruments from-20 ° C up to 1550 ° C.“ �is allows it to cover a wide scope when compared to other calibration labs,” continues Mlangeni.“ �e accreditation demonstrates technical competency for a de ned scope and the operation of a laboratory quality management system.”
�e reference equipment employed by the lab includes high-precision multi-meters that are annually sent to the National Metrology Institute of South Africa( NMISA) for calibration, again evidencing traceability to national and international standards.
Other South African labs also use the local
