Description

The Thermocal Metrology and Calibration laboratory is accredited and the Thermocal Metrology and Calibration laboratory has been accredited by the National Accreditation Entity (ENAC) since November 1999 in the fields of Fluids-pressure (accreditation 92 / LC182) and Temperature (accreditation 92 / LC183) , for carrying out calibrations both in their facilities as "on site". Its services to the industry include the verification, verification and adjustment of instrumentation in both areas.

The TERMOCAL laboratory is structured in two areas:

TEMPERATURE AREA. The laboratory in the temperature area has as primary standards platinum resistance thermometers PRT-25, as well as several fixed points of the international ITS-90 temperature scale
PRESSURE AREA. The pressure area has patterns for hydraulic and pneumatic pressures, both absolute, relative or differential.
