Company Review Comtest (PTY) Limited The Comtest Group, Fluke’s authorised test and measurement distributor for Southern Africa, has introduced the 9190A Ultra-cool field metrology well. This is a small, lightweight and accurate dryblock calibrator with best-in-class stability. The 9190A is ideal for pharmaceutical, biomedical and food processing applications that demand strict quality control and regulatory process compliance, including on-location validation and calibration of RTDs, thermocouples, thermometers, and other temperature sensors. The 9190A conforms to EURAMET cg-13 guidelines for best measurement practices for temperature dry-block calibrators. This ensures that the 9190A specifications for accuracy, stability, axial (vertical) uniformity, radial (well-to-well) uniformity, loading and hysteresis have been thoroughly, and carefully defined and tested. It has a wide temperature range (-95 to 140°C) to cover the coldest and warmest temperatures required in pharmaceutical, biomedical and food processing applications, operating at ultra-cold temperatures not typically available with a calibration bath. The 9190A uses no bath fluids, keeping clean rooms clean, making it easier to transport and delivering faster heating/cooling rates. It offers best-in-class temperature stability (± 0.015°C) for consistent, accurate results. The 9190A with “process” option features 4-20mA connectors, a reference thermometer input, four-wire PRT/RTD input with an accuracy of ±0.02°C and a reference sensor control to minimise the effects of the axial gradient when a reference PRT is aligned with short sensors.

Toxic fumes can cause health problems for staff and in extreme cases death, while corrosive fumes can cause severe damage to sophisticated and expensive equipment. Alphalab is a pioneer in the evolution of the basic fume cupboard into the modern and sophisticated piece of laboratory equipment it is today. Their fume cupboards offer an aerodynamic design, give exceptional performance and provide the highest quality laboratory ventilation. These principles are manifested in Alphalab’s highly successful Constaflow™ and Inductaflow™ range of fume cupboards. The Alphalab fume cupboards are designed to meet the most stringent operating conditions and are specified in almost all major laboratory projects across the country, and are the only units available which have easily replaceable individual panels both internally and externally, making them cost effective to maintain, since unlike all the other units available, in the local market, not the whole expensive fume cupboard is replaced. The company has a team of in house specialists that will assist their customers from the design stage, right through to final commissioning of the entire installation. A range of laboratory furniture in high quality steel is available, and for the smaller budget a melamine option can be supplied. Various worktops can be supplied to suit all laboratory applications. All products are locally manufactured and designed, so that Alphalab can control the quality and service back up. Also this ensures that there are no excessive delays in waiting for parts, which is often the case when using imported products. So, if your lab needs a high quality, reliable product from a company with more than 47 years of experience in the market place, contact us at Alphalab. Alphalab would also like to take this opportunity to wish all of their dedicated customers a successful and prosperous 2014, and they look forward to being of service to you in the New Year.
