Volume Calibration
Calibration Services
Volume calibration is a crucial aspect of volumetric analysis. For measuring the volume of liquids, which is the space occupied by the substance we determine the capacity of the container. The measuring instruments generally used for liquids are pipettes, micropipettes, burettes, glass beakers and measuring flasks.
Accredited Calibration Capabilities
To accomplish the accuracy of the measured quantity, timely and regular testing and calibration of measuring tools are highly advised. This removes errors in measurement appropriation and keeping processes and people safe in their work environment.
Calibration of Volumetric Apparatus: Pipettes, Burettes & more
Calibration of glassware is commonly done using an analytical balance and a liquid of known and specific density. The procedure is to determine the mass of the liquid the glassware can hold, and to divide this with the density of the liquid to arrive at the volume of liquid.
Why is volumetric calibration very important?
Accurate volumetric glassware is essential for reliable quantitative measurements. Over time, factors like temperature and humidity can cause drift, leading to errors that affect reactions and results. Regular calibration of all volume-measuring tools like pipettes, burettes, flasks, cylinders, and more ensures precision, compliance, and confidence in your analytical work.
