1
This laboratory offers commercial calibration service and field calibration service, where noted.
2
Calibration and Measurement Capability Uncertainty (CMC) is the smallest uncertainty of measurement
that a laboratory can achieve within its scope of accreditation when performing more or less routine
calibrations of nearly ideal measurement standards or nearly ideal measuring equipment. CMCs
represent expanded uncertainties expressed at approximately the 95 % level of confidence, usually
using a coverage factor of k = 2. The actual measurement uncertainty of a specific calibration
performed by the laboratory may be greater than the CMC due to the behavior of the customer’s device
and to influences from the circumstances of the specific calibration.
3
Field calibration service is available for this calibration. Please note the actual measurement
uncertainties achievable on a customer's site can normally be expected to be larger than the CMC found
on the A2LA Scope. Allowance must be made for aspects such as the environment at the place of
calibration and for other possible adverse effects such as those caused by transportation of the
calibration equipment. The usual allowance for the actual uncertainty introduced by the item being
calibrated, (e.g. resolution) must also be considered and this, on its own, could result in the actual
measurement uncertainty achievable on a customer’s site being larger than the CMC.
4
In the statement of CMC, L is the length of the unit under test in inches; R is the numerical value of the
resolution of the device in its respective units.
5
The measurands stated are generated with the Fluke 5520A, 5720A, 5725A series of instruments. This
capability is suitable for the calibration of the devices intended to measure the stated measurand in the
ranges indicated. CMC is expressed as either a specific value that covers the full range or as a
fraction/percentage of the reading/output plus a fixed floor specification.
6
The measurands stated are measured with the HP 3458A. This capability is suitable for the calibration
of the devices intended to generate the measurand in the ranges indicated. CMC is expressed as either a
specific value that covers the full range or as a combination of the fraction/percentage of the
reading/output plus a range specification.
7
Where ranges are not specified, the CMC stated is for the cardinal points only.
8
In the statement of CMC, percentages are to be read as percent of reading, unless otherwise indicated.
Calibration
This laboratory is accredited in accordance with the recognized International Standard ISO/IEC 17025:2017 General
requirements for the competence of testing and calibration laboratories. This laboratory also meets the requirements of ANSI/NCSL
Z540-1-1994 and R205 – Specific Requirements: Calibration Laboratory Accreditation Program. This accreditation demonstrates
technical competence for a defined scope and the operation of a laboratory quality management system
(refer to joint ISO-ILAC-IAF Communiqué dated April 2017).
