Extends the scope of ISO/IEC 17025 accreditation in 2005 that permits Calibration Laboratory K064 to manufacture and sell metrology level-2 certified reference materials (CRMs).
Scott Specialty Gases manufacturing facility located in Breda, Netherlands, recently received accreditation by the Dutch Accreditation Council (RvA) to manufacture multi-component natural gas BTU mixtures as well as calibration gas mixtures used for measuring vehicle exhaust emissions.
The accreditation extends the scope of initial ISO/IEC 17025 accreditation earned in 2005 that permits Scott's Breda facility, known as Calibration Laboratory K064, to manufacture and sell metrology level-2 certified reference materials (CRMs).
When used to calibrate analysers, Scott's accredited BTU mixtures are instrumental for precise determination of the caloric value of natural gas to within +/-0.2%.
Scott's accredited vehicle emission mixtures include carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and propane in nitrogen and provide guaranteed +/-1.0% analytical accuracy.
The RvA accreditation applies to mixtures that are prepared on both an individual and a batch basis using Scott's Acublend dynamic blending technology.
Scott Specialty Gases maintains ISO 9001-2000 certified manufacturing facilities and 17025 accredited laboratories in North America and Europe to provide on-time worldwide delivery of high-purity and mixed gases for industrial, scientific, medical and semiconductor applications.
Scott is the world's largest producer of EPA protocol gases and the single-source producer of gaseous standard reference material candidates (SRMs) for the National Institute of Standards and Technology (Nist).
Scott's equipment group provides all types of gas handling equipment and custom distribution systems.
