Calibration and Measurement Capability (CMC) is expressed in terms of the measurement parameter, measurement range,
expanded uncertainty of measurement and remarks. The expanded uncertainty of measurement is expressed as the standard
uncertainty of the measurement multiplied by a coverage factor of 2 (k=2), corresponding to a confidence level of
approximately 95%.
Notes:
1) Laboratory offers calibration services at the laboratory's own facilities and at the client or other agreed upon facilities.
2) Uncertainty shown is per wire for thread wire sets.
3) L = length in inches, D = diameters in inches, T = temperature / RH applied, X = flow / frequency / volts / ohms /
amps / capacitance applied, M = mass applied, F = force in kg, P = pressure applied, V = volume, W = weight in lb
