Establishment of a Primary Temperature Standards Laboratory (3.21 MB(兆))

Construction of a National Measurement Institute's primary temperature standards laboratory requires establishing a capability similar to the Fluke Calibration laboratories in Utah, USA and Norwich, UK. A primary laboratory needs to realize the ITS-90 and provide calibration for Standard Platinum Resistance Thermometers (SPRTs) over the temperature range of –196 °C to 962 °C.
