Abstract: | This paper describes procedures used to perform 152 annual recertifications of temperature, pressure, and flow rate audit standards. It discusses the metrology laboratories and the uncertainty of their recertifications. It describes the data base for the standards that tracks their recertifications and shipments. Finally, it presents some illustrative recertification results and describes what these results reveal about the audit standards and the recertifications. |
