ndress+Hauser’s wet flow calibration rig, based at the company’s UK headquarters in Manchester, has been awarded UKAS accreditation. UKAS ensures that companies meet the requirements of ISO 17025, the international standard for testing and calibration laboratories. The rigorous auditing process tests the quality and method of the calibration as well as the competency of technicians carrying out the work, the process of creating and storing documentation and the traceability of reference standards.


Endress+Hauser achieves UKAS accreditation E


“It’s a trust issue,” explained Mohsin Patel, Internal Repair and Calibration Team Leader. “Because we’re UKAS accredited, customers can trust us and know that we provide a quality service. It means they can rely on the accuracy of their flowmeters, which is vital for quality-critical applications in the life sciences, oil & gas and food & beverage sectors.” Accredited and cost-effective

Endress+Hauser said it aims to become the number one calibration provider in the UK. “Compared to the other accredited calibration laboratories in the UK, we are competitive on price and offer a better turnaround,” said Mohsin Patel .

Visitors to the SICK stand were interested to see how they could cost effectively incorporate a print inspection solution into their existing packaging line set-up to check presence, legibility and location of printed codes. Products not


displaying legible codes in the correct location can quite often be subjected to expensive reworks, assuming they are spotted prior to leaving the factory. Obviously, the cost is considerably


higher if the problem isn’t identified and the product actually makes it to our supermarket shelves. The 4Sight solu- tion checks every product, even on high speed lines, to ensure the printed code meets the requirements expected.

Hydra-Cell® Pulse-lessMT8Metering Pump has ATEX Certific atio n


T


he Hydra-Cell MT8 low-flow, high-pressure metering and dosing pump is now available with ATEX Zone 2 certifica- tion.


Conforming to ATEX Group ll, Category 3, Zone 2, gas group (IIC) and temperature class (T5 or T4 depending on process liquid temperature), the MT8 is classified for use within explosive atmospheres consisting of a mixture of air and flammable substance in the form of gas, vapour or mist that is not likely to occur in normal operation, but if it does occur will persist for a short time only


For Category 3, Zone 2, a protective system isn’t always required. In this case, an oil level sight bowl is fitted to the drive side of the Hydra-Cell pump that enables easy monitoring by the end user.


As with all ATEX approved Hydra-Cell pumps, the MT8 features an ATEX nameplate fixed to the pump housing that displays the markings of conformity to prove the pump is “suitable for use” in the zones for which it is certified. The nameplate also indicates the specific ATEX Zone classification. Each pump is also fitted with an earth stud to test for earth continuity.


To achieve its low flow accuracy, the MT8’s flow rate is controlled by altering the pump RPM by an ATEX precision variable gear box. Keeping a constant diaphragm stroke length ensures a constant compression ratio and excellent accuracy in very large turndown applications. The variable gear box also has a lock option to stop unauthorised adjustments.

NV Measurement Systems (UKAS Laboratory 0653) have been providing calibration services for Rion instruments since 2001 and most major manufacturers’ instrumentation since 2009.


A


Operations manager, Kiran Mistry says having our laboratory based in Milton Keynes at ANV's HQ means customers do not have to send equipment outside the UK for calibration. As a result, we are able to offer a 5 day turnaround and in conjunction with this, the customer is kept informed throughout the calibration process negating downtime, potential loss of revenue while at the same time providing assurance and peace of mind.


ANV offer:-


UKAS accredited and traceable calibration for Sound Level Meters, Acoustic Calibrators and Pi stonphones ,


Microphones, Octave/Third Octave Filters, Accelerometers *Vibration Meters*, Tapping Machines, Reverberation Time.
